Hi, I'm not sure how to play this game. I am able to get the different tools and with them find the different objects, but I don't know what to do next. Clicking on them does nothing and they just disappear after a couple of seconds again.

Could you explain how to play like to a 5 year old? Maybe I'm just not getting something obvious. I would really like to play it and rate it properly.

The goal of the game is to identify the real killer when time runs out. If there is no killer, choose 'no one'.

How to Play:

  1. Find Evidence: Start by searching for evidence at the crime scene.
  2. Link Evidence to Suspects: Simply finding evidence isn't enough. You must assign each piece to a suspect by placing a tick (✓) next to their name in your notebook.
  3. Identify the Killer: When time ends, select the killer from the menu based on your notebook entries.
    • The killer is the suspect linked to the most pieces of evidence found at the scene.
    • Important: If two or more suspects are tied for the highest number of linked evidence pieces, then no one is the killer.

Tip: To determine which suspect an evidence piece belongs to, check the suspect descriptions in the 'SUS' (Suspects) menu.

I was missing the clicking on the notepad to place a tick, I thought you needed to do something directly with the stuff you find to note it down.
