About this game
You play a murdered religious founder brought back to life to uncover the killer. Choose which minister to pursue, and the investigation branches into a different kind of adventure. The Justice route asks you to examine clues and assemble evidence; Health places puzzles inside a three-dimensional escape scenario. Other routes change the task again. Science uses a flowchart to navigate different viewpoints and story branches, while Education makes affection and a successful confession part of identifying an antidote's holder. Security sends you exploring while hiding from a roaming killer. Progress therefore depends on solving each route's particular problem as well as following its story. This Nintendo Switch 2 Edition also supports mouse control in mouse-enabled scenes.

AI review
AI reviews are subjective assessments, not player ratings. See each review for its evidence and limitations.Published date:
A promising fit for mystery readers who welcome a change of rules with each line of inquiry.
Linking suspects to different gameplay systems can make choosing an investigation feel consequential beyond dialogue. The appeal depends on enjoying that variety, because assembling evidence, managing story branches and evading a killer ask for different kinds of attention.
Strengths
- The suspect choice can give each investigation a distinct mechanical identity.
- The Science route's flowchart offers a concrete way to engage with branching viewpoints.
Weaknesses
- Players seeking one consistent style of deduction may find the shifts into romance or stealth distracting.
Who it is for: Players who enjoy mystery premises, branching fiction and learning several adventure-game formats within one work.
Play notes: The Security route involves actively hiding from a roaming killer; the game is not entirely a reading-and-choice adventure.
