This thread is for game hints. Feel free to add anything you've figured out for yourself.

Hint-> Be careful who you accuse. 3 false accusations on your record will retire your detective. However, the Shady Character in the bar can help you clean up your record if you've made too many mistakes. It'll cost you though.

Oh - my mistake, sirgarr. *Twice* in a row! That changes the matter completely. Of course it's grounds for murder. Who wouldn't kill for two forgotten birthdays, let alone two *in a row* (gasp)? I feel so silly for getting this wrong...

Really, how did you use a cut scene? Blood, scarves -- I've seen both of these mean different things, I think.

I've discovered stress detection to be a big help, at least on the beginner level...lol..I usually have two questions left I want to ask them when it tells me they will answer one more question this lets me wait to decide which one I want to ask after I have interviewed more

This is the first time I've seen something like this, on Incredibly Hard -- "I searched her house and found a photograph that was apparently taken right after Jeffrey was murdered. Florence had apparently taken it herself. It showed her covered in blood and smiling, like she'd just recieved the best gift in the world. I recognised the photo from my dream, but could never explain how I knew I would find it."

Sirgarr, I've seen that before. That time it wasn't anywhere near Incredibly Hard. (Maybe Difficult or Really Hard.) I think it's rare but can appear on most levels.

Kit's right. I've seen that on Hard.

I need a hint from someone whose solved "The Puzzle of the Family Shock". I'm down to two suspects, but none of my witnesses are very helpful, and those that did talk, had to be bribed in this game. I rarely ever pay a bribe, for their usually they turn out to be of no help. If someone can give me a clue, I'd appreicate your sending me a message. Thanks, DaRu

Can't stress this one enough. You must not use a POP UP BLOCKER if you want to receive messages. Poor Secret Asian Man has been begging everyone for help and can't get an answer.

HINT: Turn off your pop-up blocker!!!

I forget people's birthdays all the time. My mother's motive would be like "Forgot her birthday an uncountable number of times in a row". Expect me to be an unsolved victim of crime soon. lol

Guilty here too, Miss Wiles.
