A Detective Story - Game Guide

Think like a real detective and understand people's psychology is the key to crack a case.

General guidance:

• Your mission: Solve the murder as efficiently as possible - minimize days elapsed and questions spent.
• Bringing suspects to the station costs valuable time (days). Choose your interviews with care.
• These are informal interrogations - no formal oaths, no truth serum. Witnesses and suspects may deceive, omit, or hide the truth.
• You have only 3 questions per interview. Make every one count.
• Stay in character for maximum immersion: Ask about alibis, relationships, timelines, strange sightings, and contradictions.
• Cross-check stories, hunt inconsistencies, and link conversations to evidence found on the map.
• Don’t just identify the culprit - uncover what really happened.
• There are three alternative endings!
• Some people only show up at locations at specific times.
