About the Game

Unravel the Threads, Expose the Truth

As a test subject, you will experience an incredibly realistic investigative process under the system's strict rules. From a simple takeout receipt or a brief item description, to a full crime scene analysis and interrogation transcripts... every seemingly insignificant fragment could be the critical clue that makes or breaks your case.

Immersive Fragmented Deduction System

Carefully read and sift through a massive database of information, using precise keyword searches to trigger new leads. Utilize the built-in clue categorization and notepad features to piece together fragmented data and reconstruct the sequence of events.

An Interlocking Web of Clues

Clues are progressive and deeply interconnected. Want to track down "Delivery Info"? You'll need to uncover the shipping label number first. Need to request a "Search Warrant"? You must extract the core motive from a sea of data. Stuck at a dead end? You can request a hint from the system, but it will cost you Detective Points. Investigate thoroughly, uncover the facts, and find your own key to cracking the case!

Key Features

Active Deduction: Forget passive reading. Rely entirely on your own proactive database searches to piece together the truth!
In-Depth Case Review: Unlock the official case breakdown after closing a file so you can fully grasp every logical detail.
Shared Universe: While each case operates independently, they are all tightly woven together by a single hidden thread!
