Features
See their futures!
Interact with suspect mugshots to step into their futures and investigate for clues and evidence!


Gather evidence
Each future has multiple pieces of evidence to collect. The more evidence you find, the clearer picture you can create!


Review the facts
Once gathered, evidence will appear on your investigation board in the present day, allowing you to revisit clues for information you may have missed

Make your decision!
Once you feel confident you've identified the guilty suspect, make your choice. Careful, accusing an innocent will have consequences!
