I am happy to announce that the latest expansion to Sleuth: Noir, the Nemesis Hunt, is officially live as of 23:00 server time on September 9th, 2012. That is a full hour AHEAD of the scheduled update time, so first off let me start by thanking Ben for everything he has done to enable this expansion from day 1. He has been very open and supportive in this endeavor, and none of this could have been done without him. So thank you, Ben.

Now, on to the good stuff... how do nemesis hunts work?

If you have captured 3 or more Arch-Villains (10 starting October 1st), you are able to start a Nemesis Hunt. The first step is to head to Shangri-La and talk to the Prince.

...and that is the only step I will give you.

Good luck everyone! There is a special achievement on the line for the first person to capture a Nemesis, so get to it...

Question: "I dont want any spoilers. If you could just tell me if i need to do cases and wait for a clue to appear to [REDACTED], or do i need to go and do something else."
Answer: "Right now, you're waiting for your nemesis to contact you somehow. I suggest you just go about your regular business, but remember... your nemesis will only interfere in cases at the Almost Impossible level."

Question: "do clues for [REDACTED] come from AI cases, or do we need to [REDACTED] first?"
Answer: "You have to do AI cases to [REDACTED], not the other way around."

Question: "may i ask if the clues randomly appear all over the sleuth world when u do AI cases ?"
Answer: "I can't really divulge how the clues appear, but I can tell you that AI cases in any city can be part of the nemesis hunt; there's no geographic restriction there."

The [REDACTED] information is to avoid spoilers; to those who've already started a nemesis hunt, it's the thing that the clues work for.

It seems that clues are given not only at AI cases level as i know a clue given after solving an easy case. It is either a bug or a very nasty nemesis!

Got my first clue- Wow this really is going to be for the long haul

I've just started my Nemesis Hunt and already I'm totally addicted. My sincere thanks to Serges and everyone who contributed to this exciting expansion :-D

So far, so bad - already did like 7 cases and it seems my nemesis is really shy to confront me in a case :p. Ah well, just have to keep on trying ^_^

There seems to be more confusion on this point than I intended when I wrote it, so let me clarify something real quick...

The clues you're supposed to get are FOR the [REDACTED], not FROM the [REDACTED].

Got to say this really is a challenge. Thank you Serges for putting a little spice back into the game for me ;)

@ serges and cfm - thanks. and yes i got mixed up about that. i was at the stage where you do get the files locked up for a short time ... i just forgot that the game already told me that. i must screw my head on more tightly when i get up in the mornings!
