Hola! Que tal?
I'm new and still quite young (4 days). It took me a while to figure out how to play the game, and in the beginning stages I made 2 false accusations. I know you get 3 false accusations before your detective is...deleted or such? I remember reading it was something very bad.
Is there anyway to get rid of false accusations?
Do you think I should start over and make a new detective so I don't continuously have to worry about stuffing up again?

Also another thing I was wondering about. I have never subscribed to a game and will probably not subscribe to sleuth...is it possible to join agencys/travel/do any of the cooler stuff without subscribing?

Gracias!

Hola.

If you see Shady who resides in the backs of bars, you can pay him a lot of money to get rid of your F.As. Each time you go to him and the more experienced you are, the more he costs.

If you feel that the money cost is too great or that you're scared of retiring your detective, you can start again, this will also give you a chance to maybe get different skills if you feel you got one that aren't so helpful.

If your detective does get retired, you can bring him/her back however at this stage the cost of that to you is worse than starting over.

Oh, and you can wait... make sure you don't get a third accusation and wait until you gain more money to pay him off, you don't NEED to pay Shady off straight away but it's often better too.

Good luck!

Sorry Clara,
Iäm so flakey today.
About yoru last question, if you're not subscribed you still get 4 free cases a day plus favour(s) and a free featured mystery but no, you canät join or create an agency or travel.

Muchas gracias Lady Ruby Caplan!
I went to see Shady and it only cost $420 this time which I can easily afford so I paid it. Agencies sound like a lot of fun... I might consider subscribing in the future if my interest in sleuth doesn't wane. (going strong currently!)
Gracias para su ayuda
ps. the dress you have is muy bonito
