Mini Murder Mysteries is a cozy investigative deduction game made for fans of head-scratching whodunits. Don the trilby of a gumshoe detective and get to work solving nine distinct, self-contained crime scene conundrums. To progress, you'll need to scour the evidence, analyze witness statements, collect relevant keywords, and make smart deductions. Become a detective and solve a series of twisty, tricksy murder mysteries. Examine evidence, read witness statements, and collect deduction words that you'll use to solve each case. The cases in Mini Murder Mysteries pay homage to (and build upon) tropes from across detective fiction – from dusty old manors to Ancient Egyptian museum exhibits, and from restaurant kitchens to cutting edge biochemical labs. Leave no stone unturned as you gather clues and discover truths. Cross-reference information. Piece things together. Use lateral thinking. Each case's murder board is chock-full of evidence – from incriminating correspondence and fingerprint reports, to burner phones and distracting red herrings. Read about each object, collect special 'Deduction Words' as you go, and build an ironclad picture in your mind of what really happened. Witness or suspect? Every case offers "useful" input from people closest to the victim. Along the way you'll encounter power-mad movers and shakers, innocent bystanders, gamblers, spies, liars and lotharios. And, who knows, maybe even a lifelong nemesis? It's up to you to work out who's telling the truth – and use your intuition to see through the lies. Sort the coincidental from the crucial to make smart deductions. Each of Mini Murder Mysteries' nine unique cases revolves around 24 'Deduction Words' that you'll use to assert whodunit . The problem? You'll only need a handful of those words to make the correct conclusion. That means you'll need to get good at sifting through events, statements and information to weed out what's irrelevant and what's key to each case. Close your case list and you might even unravel a deeper, interconnected mystery...
