It kinda reminds me of Sherlock Holmes books!

I may play it someday.

Hope you have time to give it a try! It's definitely inspired by Sherlock Holmes, Agatha Christie, and classic mysteries. Also the creepy atmosphere of Scooby-Doo. It's amazing how it's possible to tell different kinds of stories with RPGmaker!

If you didn't used the Enygma Virtual Box after the deployment, I surely can play it through Wine on my Linux system! :biggrin:

Nope, there's no Enygma Virtual Box. Just an enigma for a detective to solve. :LZSwink:

Nice graphics in the screenshots! I see some tiles reminiscent of Time Fantasy. How much is custom?

Thanks. I don't think any of the tiles are custom, but I tried combining tiles from multiple sources to get the spooky mystery look I was trying to achieve. I definitely don't consider myself a visual arts expert compared to some of the incredible parallax maps or 3D creations I've seen people posting. There's a bunch of custom event art and key art in the game (as you can see in some screenshots), and all the music is custom-made for the project. :)

I love this game very much. You guys are really great. The story of the game is very complete, the parts are tightly arranged, and the plot lines and clues are clearly organized. Unfortunately, the main plot is a bit short, the personalities of the characters are not distinct enough, and the picture and music have a lot of room for improvement. Hope to see more of your work!

I am translating this game into Chinese. At present, the work is nearly completed and is being tested and optimized.

It's really flattering to see you put so much effort into this, and exciting to see a whole new audience enjoying the game in a new language. If you're interested, I'd be honored to use your translation in the official version of the game distributed in stores. We already have German, French, and Russian localizations and I'd love to be able to offer Chinese localization as well as give you your due credit. Please contact me if you are open to discussion, and thanks so much for your interest in the project! :LZSsmile:
