6 itemsAbout the Game
Everybody lies. But what makes you a good detective, is to know which lies to bite into, and which to ignore.
Because the murderer is among these people, and you are the lucky detective assigned to this mess of a case.
It's about the satisfaction of catching someone telling a lie, and getting every little detail out of a conversation.
Currently, the three case variations stack around 1-2 hours if you push through, and around 4-5 hours if you like exploring all the possibilities.
The graphics are crude, and the gameplay is simple. It is meant as a thin-mint of an interesting story, not a massive game.
Is it niche? Yes. Might this game not be for you? Maybe.
But for those who love unraveling mysteries, I hope you are up for a challenge or two.

The murder mysteries are written to be around 30 minutes each, and since the game has a huge amount of dialogue, it is sadly not fully voiced.Currently, the three case variations stack around 1-2 hours if you push through, and around 4-5 hours if you like exploring all the possibilities.
