This was a neat game, except I didn't know what to do at first and didn't realize you could only visit each person once (and that the evidence was saved for outside the time limit). It was also a little confusing about what exactly was going to happen - I wasn't sure at the beginning if it was one crime or three different crimes from the three different suspects. So an intro would be helpful. But otherwise it was cool finding the evidence and trying to piece together the info!

pretty cool concept. i think there needs to be some introduction or instruction, because i didn’t know what i was supposed to do at first and then there’s time limits and all. the incident hasn’t happened yet, and this could be a good realization moment if the player can find out when Donald met Lhanco, what is the current date and time, etc. and instead of just picking the person, maybe the player needs to figure out what type of threat is going to happen, or where it is going to happen. all in all, i think this has a good foundation and i enjoyed playing it. good job!

This is a cool premise! I definitely could have done with more instruction, though--when I entered the different houses I didn't realize there was going to be a timer, and when I found the documents I didn't know I'd be able to access them outside of the house and I thought I had to read them all on the spot. I also didn't know that when I used the door, I was going to have to pick the murderer right then and wouldn't be able to go back and look at the documents again.
