2: The Case File page is the main page where the player can manipulate the data s/he has collected during an investigation. The player can:

  • use the checkboxes to tag data acquired. The player is free to apply whatever logic system they devise when using the checkboxes. This may help to identify: o which suspects they have questioned o if they have found corresponding hair and fibre samples
  • use the dropdown menu box to provide another means of sorting acquired information by searching through the suspect database and accessing the results in the personal notes box below.
    • For example: the player discovers a red silk fibre and does two searches - 1) to determine who is wearing silk clothing and 2) to determine who is wearing something red. The result will be recorded in the personal notes and can be cross-referenced at any time throughout the investigation.
  • use the scrollable personal notes box to record information as it is acquired during an investigation. This will avoid having to scribble notes on paper and, if the case is saved, all the personal notes will remain intact for later use.
