Detective Story: Investigation puts you in the role of a detective working to uncover the truth behind a mysterious murder. Each case begins with a crime scene that needs careful examination, where finding the right objects and noticing small details can reveal important clues. The investigation gradually develops into a larger mystery as you piece together evidence and work toward identifying the person responsible.
The gameplay combines hidden-object challenges, photo puzzles, and detective investigations. In Detective Story: Investigation, you search detailed scenes for specific items, examine clues, and use your observations to move the case forward. Instead of relying only on traditional puzzle mechanics, the game connects these activities to a cinematic crime story, giving each investigation a clear objective and narrative purpose.
The story follows a strange case involving a locked box, an unexpected phone call, and a mysterious person known as Jack. The investigation is inspired by events associated with Philadelphia, adding a darker mystery element to the adventure. Piecing together who Jack actually is takes longer than expected, since the photo puzzles and hidden-object scenes are the investigation itself, not separate busywork between story beats.
