I have a couple of questions I'd like some feedback on. Please Answer by replying to this post.

1) Is the game fun? Really fun, kind of fun, funner than going to the dentist?

2) Can you think of anything that would make the game more fun?

3) Is the game too hard? Too easy?

Thanks

last thing- whats the big deal with knowing the motive before being able to accuse???

I found myself is very frustrating situation where i had PE and 2 WE on 1 suspect and i couldn;t accuse because i did not know motive! i mean, if someone definately did it- surely reasons (which are usualy pathetic anyway-to steal a heirloom or insanity) shouldn't be important.

So you think its too easy but you're complaining about having to quit the case because you didn't get a motive? That doesn't make much sense.

Trust me, the harder levels aren't just longer. Once you get up to IH cases and above, it takes a lot more skill to question people, using up the few questions you have properly, etc. Also, try a featured mystery once you subscribe, you might find them more interesting.

To convict someone in a court of law you need: Means, Opportunity and Motive.

Not a very good detective if you can only find Means and Opportunity. The DA will not prosecute your cases.

Erast, you'd probably like the game more if you become a sub, or try the unread will, the free freatured mystery. You might find that writen featured mysterys are more than alibi, and motive Q's, if you write one you'll see what I mean. It's not the same! THere is alot more to sleuth than you think.

Also, the PE people ask you who you think it is because that makes it not to easy, so aparently your bouncing around in circles, you think it's to easy yet you say that the Barber, Shoe Maker ect. should just tell you who it implacats and then ask another suspect who they think it belongs to, that only happens in scripted mysterys, and only on some types of evidence. And on what biggie said and R Anstett said you really need that motive in a case, its as important as the PE and WE. I suggest you ask other suspects for that movtive of that person you need.

Hi, just found this game a couple of days ago, and I really enjoy it. Still feeling my way around until I become a paying member. The difficulty level seems ok to me. Keep up the great work. Just by reading all the posts, there are some really funny and intelligent detectives on this site. Have a great day!

1. Fun

2. I agree with lexigibbs, more mysteries per day would be good

3. I find it pretty good right now.

Jack, I think if you look back to lexi's post on the first page, you will see that her post was 3 years ago.

So with that said, currently all subscribers have 12 daily cases, give or take if they have sidekicks, and all non subscribers have 4 mysteries a day now. That is one more case than you all used to have!

In my opinion, its definately more than enough mysteries for unsubbers :)

1. Fun
2. More freatured mysteries
3. Not too easy: learn new skills - move to harder cases.

1. Fun :)
2. I agree with Erast. The Barber or Tailor should be more specific when they give you the answer. It would be better if the barber let you know whether the hair was straight/curly etc.
3. Should be a little easier for beginners. I am not the best detective but I ampretty good. There are times when I wish the townies wouldnt clam up as much as they do. Thats what makes it harder for me. Otherwise, I think this is a really good game and I love playing it everyday.
