Very nice little deduction game! A couple of the puzzles felt a bit obtuse, but overall very nice concept that could definitely make it if done well.

4.5/5.

Best of luck, Marcus! Cheers.

Thanks for the feedback do you have anything that can change?

fundamentally, the game feels like it'd have some sort of moral question: "Is it okay to kill others for yourself?", "Do murderers deserve death?", "Is eye for eye moral?".
This could've been done if I had these sort of characters established in some way.
A game like Papers Please does this by having them just talk to you and tell you all their life issues and how life is so 'boo hoo sad', but this isn't the one way to go, there could be additional, non-case relevant papers that are obituaries of relatives of one of the suspects, or tax and loan logs that indicate deep debt, something so simple can just go the extra mile.

Other than that, gameplay wise, everything feels a bit dry and empty, the papers move and slide but not like how papers do, the game says in one of the newspapers that I'm gonna need proof but then I don't, my desk doesn't change or get decorated or deteriorated, and generally just more and more nitpicky """criticisms""" that will obviously be done later on in development.

Thank you I needed to see where to fix up the game and you pointed out good details that need a rework. Thanks again.
