Silly question maybe. But when playing the feature cases are there any tips to solve em, apart form the normal ones. As I seem to be struggling with these ones.

Any help will be great - as yet i'm not up to columbos level!!!

Yes, no matter how many times it takes you to find the murderer on the feature mysteries, it doesn't count as a false on your record if you don't get it right. And yes, you can play each feature as many times as you want. However, you only get the reward and the experience points the first time you solve it correctly :)

There are two tips to solving FMs, and they're the only two that really consistently help:

1) Read carefully. Unlike the randomly generated intros, the necessary clues are in the story itself. And on that note...
2) Although it's in a game format, it's still a story. The continuity of the plot itself is how you figure out what step to take next.

It DOES count in using up one of your daily cases, though, even if there's no false involved with a wrong answer on an FM.

And I thought when I started that FM's seemed much harder than the level they were rated, so after some frustration, I waited until I had more skills and gear to work on them, and they got easier. Even so, I am so much in the habit of solving regular cases that they sometimes throw me for a loop just because they are so different.
