Every detail is a key to the truth.
 Clues by Genius is an immersive detective reasoning puzzle game. Here, you will become the chief detective, navigating mysterious ancient castles, bustling metropolises, distant futures, and campus chapters shrouded in fog.
Why did the socialite collapse mysteriously while trying on a corset? How did the murderer use a fishing line to achieve a "deadly attraction" under the watchful eyes of the crowd? Faced with suspects of various expressions, can you, within a complex grid of clues, meticulously peel back the layers and identify the real villain? * Immersive Case Recreation: Whether it's "The Tailor's Deadly Seam" or the mysterious inheritance case on the Earl's estate, each level has its own independent storyline. * Multi-Dimensional Clue Collection: Delve into crime scenes by clicking to investigate characters and items. You need to gather enough genuine clues to unlock the final accusation button. * Professional Forensic Perspective: Listen to the professional diagnosis from the forensic examiner, analyze traces from the cause of death, and break through the psychological defenses of the murderer. * Psychological Battle Accusation: Confront the alibis of suspects like "Hugo" and present fatal evidence one by one. Be careful! If evidence is missing or incorrect, the suspect will escape judgment. * Massive Script Updates: Four major themed chapters for you to explore, with difficulty increasing progressively, satisfying all your fantasies about detective puzzles.
