HOW TO PLAY
In the first part, your goal is to catch each suspect lying. Whenever you see a lie, click on the suspect to catch him/her. From that point onward you will see through that person and detect every it automatically.
Once all the suspects are caught it is time for part two.
Everyone lies. Now we need to find out why. Once again you have a chance to click on a character. When you do, the accusation choice will appear.
A suspect can be a THIEF, FAKE, in an AFAIR or a MURDERER.
But be careful. You have only one try for each accusation.
Wrong murderer accusation is an instant game over so it's better to leave it for the last.

Good game! Not very easy to figure out at first, but far more complete as it may look like.
We had some similar ideas at the beginning of the jam, but switched to something else
Thank you and a good choice with the switch. It ended up to be a pretty hard concept to pull off.
