This game's AI model is extremely flawed. "AI is used for one thing: suspect and witness replies during interrogation." is the first thing you read in the about game section. it doesn't matter what you ask or how simple you ask the question. the suspect is always found out right away, I get making games is no walk in the park. its a lot of work, but letting an AI do the work is a shortcut. If you ask me 4.97 is not worth the price if your not putting the effort in for originality. this part is for the developer, please just put in the effort for your characters. It'll be worth it in the end i promise you that. please stop using AI for gaming.

The game is a product of blatant AI use. Although it is stated on the store page, the use of AI is inherently overwhelming. In a detective game, where you need to find contradicting statements of witnesses and suspects, running into contradictions that originate from the way AI works is confusing and misleading. The result is, that the game is not fun and lacks any sense or purpose.

I would say maybe but for that price, just get it. First of all, I used wireshark to confirm the game is indeed using a local model and does not connect to the internet. On LLM use: I think its a cool use for it, being able to ask natural language questions. For the most part it works. On the game: it is quite buggy. Also, the game constantly bugs you with popups, phone calls, etc. I wish it would just let me play in peace. At the beginning of a case, I just need 10 minutes to write down a timeline, etc. in that time, there are 6 emails, calls, popups, happening. That is really quite annoying. Another annoying thing is that to submit things to forensics, you have to beat a minigame. I found them for the most part unreasonably difficult to do. They have either ridiculously low timelimits, or a super narrow click window. I don't know why you would put this into a detective game.

游戏本身很有趣，引入AI实现的效果也很好。 不过AI的回答有时确实有点“不打自招”、“前后矛盾”和“鸡同鸭讲”。与此同时，因为这几个案子的凶手都有点“一目了然”，因此大多数时间都在“凑证据”，在点“逮捕令”的界面时，能看到缺少的关键证据，虽然降低了难度，但也降低了些可玩性（即存在暴力破解的可能）。 然后就是如前文所说，这几个案子的凶手都有点“一目了然”，与寻找凶手相比大多数时间都在凑关键证据从而能签发逮捕令，降低了“寻找犯人”的“趣味”。因此，如果有后续的案子，希望能出现一些新花样，例如犯人的数量、案件剧情的“反转”等。

After playing through the game, I can say it's definitely an interesting take on the 'Detective Games' space. The interrogations add a sense of freedom to your investigation as you try to figure out how to get the information you need to make an arrest. For the moment, who did the crime becomes immediately obvious so the case is less about figuring out who did it and more about figuring out how to prove they did it. The arrest warrant itself plays a pretty vital role in this case, it uses all the evidence you compiled, the evidence you put forward in the arrest warrant and your reasoning behind arresting who you think did it, to score your assessment and leave you with a 'deduction score'. If you don't find all the evidence or you do a poor job at linking the evidence together, you'll end up with a lower deduction score. Right now, the game does only have 5 cases and the content does feel a bit limited but I don't consider that a write-off for the game. The devs of the game seem deadset on continuing to introduce new content overtime and I think for what the game costs whether you get it now or a couple weeks/months down the line, you'll be fairly satisified with your purchase. Bug wise, I didn't notice many in my own playthrough, there was a slight issue on startup when the game first released but that's since been fixed. There's no way that I can find to load an autosave at the moment so if you're wanting to restart a case it's better to export your save file before starting the case, then importing that save when you want to restart. Other than that the gameplay felt smooth the whole way through. Definitely recommend this if you're looking for a Detective game where you're taking a more active approach in figuring out a case compared to most Detective games out there.

I think the game is fun, but the cases are kind of boring. you know who did it after like reading the first three documents, and a small spoiler: they all have the same motive. EVERY. CASE. the killers always have the same motive, which is kind of nagging me. I see you plan to release more cases soon so pleeeaaase make some more intresting cases, with other motives and maybe not so easy to find out who did it. The game itself is not that easy, but its kind of annoying not being able to arrest anyone because you dont have the last document, that you arent even going to use in the warrant. I like the ai aspect- that you can write your own questions in the interrigation, but the annoying parts of ai is in this game too. Like the suspect is saying "i was there at 10pm" and then i say "you said earlier you were there at 10pm" and then the bot just forgot that they had been saying that. Like forgetting earlier conversation all the time. but the game has many aspects to it, its more than a point and click game and is pretty cheap, so i would definetly recommend this game and just hope the developers can take in some advice from the players:)
