I'm always excited for a new deduction game and this one didn't fail me! I really liked the longstanding grudge angle for this mystery, part way through working things out I forced myself to sit down and think where all of these people would be now based on their yearbook pages and it honestly made me start to feel a little sad for these little pixel characters, especially when I got to the detail near the end of the yearbook with the mention about the twins relationship and then noticed where they both ended up dying in the fire. 


I noticed it was a game jam so I wrote down the order I figured everyone out in and how incase you wanted some input on how people played the game, but you can scroll past this if you don't need it lol


My order was:

1 (via appearance)

5 (via name)

12 & 13 (via relationship)

6 (via yearbook story)

3 (via appearance) 

2 (via appearance)

10 (via yearbook story)

4 (via appearance - technically assumption as I didn't see all of the clues, and I had assumed they would naturally get more piercings through the years)

22 (via assumption)

7 (via assumption)

14 (via yearbook and location)

8 (via yearbook defacement)

11 (via yearbook defacement)

17 (via yearbook quote)

16 (via yearbook story - very much tripped me up because for a while I was convinced it was a sex joke)

21 (via yearbook story)

18 (via appearance - though it's my fault as I didn't notice the 'toggle annotations' button until I got to writing the report)

19 (via process of elimination)

15 (via process of elimination)

Wow! This is really useful feedback!!! 

Because we already know all the answers, the hardest thing for us is to understand how a player would actually solve the mystery. 

Thanks very much for taking the time to write this down!

That's interesting because I had 4 as process of elimination since the pic wasn't very clear about any piercing, nor anything in the yearbook to indicate they had any.

Thanks very much for your comment. Much appreciated.

If you look (very closely) at the yearbook cover you might be able to see she has eyebrow, nostril, and navel piercings. However, due to the piercings being white/grey and just one pixel wide they are easily missed. On smaller displays this could be even more difficult. So yeah, you're right to point it out. :)

This is to be fixed at a later installment. 

Thank you for making this game, I really enjoyed making deductions and having the payoff of being able to do the final step easily as I already looked through the evidence and predicted it.
