About the Game

The top-ranked detectives and masterminds from six countries have been painstakingly assembled through extravagant detective competitions in order to form the Winner's Square: an elite team of detectives who will have what it takes to solve a world-threatening mystery. But the Winner's Square is not yet complete, as the latest detective competition has yet to conclude. With time running out, tensions are high. Can the team pull together to solve the ultimate problem?

Motives: The Ultimate Problem is a direct sequel to Methods: The Detective Competition. Playing Methods: The Detective Competition and its prequel Methods: The Canada Files first is recommended to avoid spoilers for both games.
