Develop your rapport with each suspect to get hints when they’re telling you a bold-faced lie, a half-truth, and even, with enough familiarity, a lie of omission. Just knowing someone’s lying to you isn’t enough, though! The tenets of your vocation require that you provide solid evidence that proves someone isn’t being truthful. Your gut instinct can guide you, but to make an edict on the truth of the matter, you’ll need to fill your casebook with conclusions wrestled from comparing and contrasting multiple claims. Half the battle is knowing what to spend your time asking; while working to solve the case of the Orb of Artemagus, you have only seven days to get the evidence you need to make a final decision about who the thief is. Each question you ask costs you time, so solving this mystery isn’t as simple as asking every single question available to you.Unless, of course, you choose to play on relaxed mode! It’s always an option to take your time and see every single piece of dialog in the game, if that’s your cup of tea.The game rewards you for making connections and pursuing leads - you have to search out exactly what you want to ask characters about by going through the entries of your casebook. If it doesn’t occur to you to ask something, it won’t appear as an option! In your role as Truthsinger, your investigative skills and social deduction instincts will be critical… because with this game, it’s entirely possible to get it wrong. At the end of the time limit, it will be up to you to present the evidence you think is relevant to accuse the person you think is guilty, and your persuasive power is more than capable of putting the wrong person behind bars.<img class="bb_img" src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4742500/extras/8dc5a6f001279ab667b7778567f3a7eb.avif?t=1782405334" data-big-src=https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4742500/extras_big/8dc5a6f001279ab667b7778567f3a7eb.webp?t=1782405334 width=1560 height=410 />
