Methods: Detective Competition is a mystery-slash-visual novel from Erabit Studios, coming to mobile on January 22nd
Erabit Studios has opened pre-registration sign-ups for Methods: Detective Competition, letting players get first dibs on the mystery-driven visual novel as soon as it's out. Expected to launch on January 22nd, the first chapter in the Methods Visual Novel series tasks you with solving a wide variety of crimes using multiple-choice questions in competition among a hundred detectives.
As the title suggests, Methods: Detective Competition takes place within a contest where a hundred detectives have to fight to solve crimes committed by the smartest criminal masterminds in the world. Whoever wins the competition will bag a million dollars, but on the flip side, if a criminal wins instead, they'll get parole no matter the crime committed.
There are more than 25 interactive crime scenes to tinker around with, along with an original soundtrack and plenty of quirky storylines to uncover across 20 chapters. All these are presented with unique visual styles and artworks.
