Very funny game and I enjoyed it very much, however not much of a mystery when the detective is always right.

I mean... It's not much of a mystery because its always right. It was funny tho ngl

At first I thought that the number of characters after the inscription "Killer" equaled the number of letters in the killer's name, so I chose Maria and was right. And then I blamed everyone else and was also right. It seems that Lady Luck is always on the side of the detective who is about to be fired!

I was waiting for the ending after all three endings, where there would be a further plot about why the detective is right every time. But it's a pity that there was none. The detective is simply always right - and that's great.

The stock photos made for an amusing turn. Not sure about the menu template since it didn't seem to match the rest of the game. I appreciate you translating the game from your native language. I wish it had been one true killer instead of the game accepting whatever answer you gave, and that there was more evidence and a few more twists and turns overall. Still, it made me smile. Thank you!

Funny game, but you didn't translate the message written in blood, so it felt like I was missing a crucial piece of evidence. Otherwise, I liked it.

Translation of the message written in blood is: "Killer is &%*$"
