■Introducing the story and game system! Two detectives take on a murder case!
<Story> In this game, players take on the role of an amnesiac detective as they solve a murder mystery. A complex story unfolds, intertwining the murder, the dark side of a closed community, and the protagonist's personal issues. At the start of the game, the protagonist awakens in a hotel room littered with broken windows and luggage, losing all memory, including their own face and name. From conversations with those around them, they learn that they are detectives dispatched to investigate a murder case and that they had been drunk the day before, marking the full start of the game. The murder investigation is carried out alongside the protagonist's partner, Detective Kim Kitsuragi. Detective Kim Kitsuragi is the polar opposite of the protagonist, meticulous and serious. He is also familiar with the Martinaise District, the setting of the game, and is a reliable person.
<Game System> In this game, players advance the story by obtaining information through conversations with relevant parties and investigating suspicious locations and objects of interest. Interviewing neighbors and investigating crime scenes are called "tasks," and many of these tasks seem unrelated to the murder case, such as those related to the player's lost memories or minor issues faced by the residents. When taking action in the game, players make various choices through dialogue with a game master-like figure and perform skill checks using dice to determine the success or failure of their actions. The higher the corresponding skill value, the higher the success rate of the check. A major feature of this game is its game system, which feels like playing a tabletop RPG.
■24 Skills Key to Solving Tasks! Enjoy Highly Flexible Gameplay!
The protagonist in this game possesses a total of 24 skills, six in each of four categories: Intelligence, Mental Ability, Physical Ability, and Athletic Ability. Each of these 24 skills has its own personality, speaking to the protagonist from within, and the player investigates the murder case through conversations with them. The skills possessed by the player also affect the dialogue options available to NPCs. Each skill is activated during in-game actions such as conversations and investigations, and the success or failure of the action is determined by a skill check using dice. Success earns experience points, while failure may result in penalties such as a loss of stamina. In this game, many tasks will arise as you progress through the story, and there are multiple ways to solve each task. Skills are primarily used to solve tasks, but the skills required vary depending on the situation. Using skills that the player excels at will allow the investigation to proceed smoothly. For example, a high level of "visual calculation" skill will allow you to deduce the movement of a car from tire tracks on the ground, or to determine the number of people and their characteristics from footprints left at the scene of a body discovery. Furthermore, if you fail a skill check, you can increase your chances of success by finding a solution using a different skill, equipping yourself with clothing, shoes, and other equipment, or using tools to compensate for your ability points.
