Sleuth - Overview

high conceptobjectivegame structurecrime scenegraphicssoundsrequirements

This is definitely a game where brains will overpower brawn every time.

Developing a systematic approach for the gathering of both information and evidence plays a major part in solving the cases presented in this game.

Suspects can be generated by either using the AutoPick button or can be manually entered by the player. Choosing the latter, friends (or enemies) can be included in the game, giving it a personal touch.

This could also suit small groups of players who collectively try to solve the crime.

Clues can be uncovered in a variety of ways, including:

  • using the tools available - a magnifying glass, tweezers, flashlight and blueprints
  • observation and direct questioning of the suspects
  • examining the items scattered around the scene
  • and poking and prying into the various locations themselves.
