Update on the mini detective game


Hi everyone!

I am finally somewhat satisfied with the murder scenarios generated by the ai, so I have decided to post a new update. There are some minor changes in gameplay as well, and also some bug fixes.

To investigate the case, the player now has the following tools:

  • Visit special locations on the map. To do that, right click on any of the leaflets on the map and select the second option (the skill that will be used) in the popup menu. This covers aspects like searching the police archives (at police station) or getting any forensic information about cases at the morgue. You may only reveal information about suspects you already met in your investigation that way (police records, medical files etc) however new names may pop up in relation to them.

  • Investigate suspects (dead or alive) may reveal new suspects or witnesses connected to the case, money and other paper trails and similar.

  • Following suspects takes the most time but it’s really the only way of revealing the murderer (by catching them red handed bribing a witness or destroying evidence). The game doesn’t aknowledge that yet as a win situation but at least you’ll know that you hit it right :)

  • Calling people on the phone takes least time but it’s also the least reliable. You’ll get a lot of hearsay and accusations thrown around when facing the suspects with any leverage you might have on them. But there could also be very important clues hidden in those statements that you might not get in any other way.

SPOILER: to reveal the entire case, just click on the bottom right drawer of your desk. Check the black board for all the facts about the murderer and their motive.

Enjoy!
