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
-Ben

I have to. I forget *everything*, so if it's not written down, then it didn't happen.

I've never been able to do it without taking some kind of notes. At least, not past Hard level, or so. Excel works well. In fact, I usually lay out Featured Mysteries in Excel first, before actually writing them.

Alibi. They basic to this game is alibi.

Are you saying that a person with a fake alibi and a piece of evidence pointing to them can be innocent?
I believe you are mistaken. Such a thing never occured to me.
Did you actually verify that their alibi was fake??

Yes, same as kouraditsa.

A person with false (or none) alibi and evidence pointing to them will always be the killer. That's what I've experienced so far, too.

Sometimes, when I accuse wrongly, I realise it's because I had taken the wrong notes. If not, then it could be a bug.

Also, the real killer definitely has evidence pointing to him or her. It's just that they might not have been recovered at the crime scene, or because suspects clam up before you have asked them the questions pointing to the right killer.

driftwood,

I've never seen any case where an innocent person has both a fake or non-existant alibi and evidence pointing towards them. The few times that I have investigated claims of that being the case, the person who thought it was happening turned out to be mistaken. I'm not saying it isn't possible, but if it is, it is so rare, that it would be very unlikely to happen to somebody more than once in the space of a few days.

I've had a couple cases now where the person I've accused had 1 piece of physical evidence, 1 piece of witness evidence, and a fake alibi, and still was the wrong person. I just figured I hadn't come up with the right evidence. (In on instance, the witness evidence was given by the real killer, so obviously these guys can lie!)

That is very strange news indeed. I can't say I've EVER encountered a case where a person with no/fake alibi and a piece of evidence towards them was not the killer. I have, of course, accused wrongly at times, but most of the times I've been able to track down a mistake in my notes after spending a few minutes thoroughly puzzled.
