Cool and short. Nice for a casual game for the night. The last puzzle had my brain buzzing for a while, but I got through and finished it! Tho as previously mentioned, the cursor was annoyingly flashing in and out of the built-in design and the default.
Nice! Came here after playing your "Let Sleeping Dogs Lie" game. One thing that bothered me was that the cursor kept flashing because it was changing from my default cursor to the custom in-game cursor.
I wasn't able to get past the first screen in the browser because it kept freezing, but I was having enough fun to download the Windows version! Lovely little game, I enjoyed it a lot. I would definitely play more!
* The butler is named Henry in his dialogue, but clicking on his name adds "Michael" to the wordlist for some reason. * There only seem to be 11 clues in the introduction, not 14; likewise, there are only 32 clues in the main case, not 34.
Other than those two bugs tripping me up, and the occasional slightly-off word hitbox (might be a good idea to darken the box the cursor is currently over when a word is being dragged over it), I had no other issues with the game.

SPOILER!!!!
You can get more clues than the required number which I think is actually quite important. I got 35 clues instead of 34 soo there's that.
rober brennan-killer
beth curry- accomplice
reason- R.B's debt
You can figure out the rest, good luck detectives;)
What was the 35th clue?
Mine was bet but it really depends on what word you'll see first
Seem fun and interesting, sadly I couldn't make the second one :c
I finished it after a good 2o minutes or so. You can do it bro!
Thanks!
A quick gameplay and minimal critique ;)

same, I think it might be a chrome issue.
Very cool!
i'd like to play more scenes of this game, i could help to proofread the texts and organize voice actors
Love the name of the zip package. "We Suspect A Foul Play Windows" - Touché.
Loved it, want more!!
This was fun! Had a slight issue of the clues button covering up the wine bottle.
Short but really interesting!
Can you update discord link?
yep! Updated
thank you！your game is so perfect--
Short and sweet but so polished. Would love to see a longer game like this!
This is so cool! The art's great too. I feel like the play style helps break my habit of brute forcing mysteries.
This was really well done!
Thank you!
There was a Jam about Detective Games!? That's exactly what I wanted for christmas.
Great game! Hope you make more!
Thanks! We'll do our best :)

Thanks! Which browser/operating system did you use?
I was using Chrome on MacOS. It would freeze everything up so I'd have to restart the whole browser. I had no issues with the Windows version.
This was great fun! A good investigative game, I might finally give the Case of the Golden Idol a try :D The art is fantastic!
Thanks!
Bug reports:
* The butler is named Henry in his dialogue, but clicking on his name adds "Michael" to the wordlist for some reason.
* There only seem to be 11 clues in the introduction, not 14; likewise, there are only 32 clues in the main case, not 34.

Heya! Thanks for the bug reports. The idea of signaling which box a word is being dragged over is great!
But I'm quite sure that the number of clues match correctly, seems like the ones you've not found weren't important for the case.
Looks very cool. Unfortunately I can't get past the first screen, because every time I start placing words the page freezes (after a couple of words).
Heya! What browser are you using and on which operating system? Have you tried the exported build?
It's Chrome and I'm on Mac so I guess the web version is my only option?
"I loved it! Great concept and very beautiful graphics. I recommend it."
