Game Objective
Player's main objective is to arrest the kidnapper and murderer.
KEY CHALLENGES
* Player must solve the crimes and arrest the kidnapper and murderer within
a timeframe of five days. Every action the player takes has a time consequence.
* Player must make choices between which leads to follow, as there is not
enough time allowed for player to investigate all leads. Therefore, the player
could conceivable miss even meeting the kidnapper or murderer if the player
chooses not to interview them.
* Several people try to lead the player astray.
GAME DESIGN
The game is partitioned into three acts or parts.
Part I: Kidnapping Scene & First Interviews
The first part, which takes part during Days 1 - 3, is exploratory, where the
player may pursue whichever leads he/she chooses, with each action "costing" the
player time. Gameplay includes:
¥ Case assignment at Police Headquarters (1 hour)
¥ Investigation of crime scene (15 min. per photo or order)
¥ Interviews of potential leads (up to 15 suspects) (15 min. per question)
¥ Visit to the library to review articles, videotapes (15 min. each read)
¥ Visit to the Mongoose Tavern for local gossip (15 min. per question)
¥ Review Forensics Tests and Alibi Verifications (15 min. each)
Part II: Mid-Game Movies
Part II begins at the start of Day 4 and consists of a murder and a direct order
from the Chief to investigate it -- if the player disobeys the Chief, they get
kicked out of the game. Following the lead to the crime scene, the player and
partner John Night Sky should realize that the two crimes are related.
Part III: Second Interviews, Suspect Round-Ups, Arrests & Epilogue
The third part, which begins mid-day on Day 4, is where the player can
re-interview all suspects and informants, asking specific, in-depth questions --
with each question costing the player time.
To raise the stakes in the story, the murder on Day 4 opens up more questions
and possibilities. The player must investigate further: who would want to murder
this person? How does it relate to the kidnapping?
Further, the Chief keeps the pressure on the player by paging them with
proddings.
By the last few hours on Day 5, the Chief encourages the player to make their
arrest attempt. If they choose not to arrest up until this point in time, they
will be thrown off the case for running out of time. If they arrest the wrong
person, they are kicked off the case or could get stabbed and die. A correct
arrest leads to a ransom payoff and results in a cast of characters being held
at gunpoint. Key dialogue in the finale and an epilogue explain how all the
clues tie together in the story.
The mystery is difficult to solve and so it not expected that the player will
arrest the right suspect the first time. Therefore, re-play value stems from the
player saving their game at critical points where they may return to a specific
point in time and "buy more time," reviewing evidence and interviewing more
suspects, and making another arrest attempt.

PART III: ARREST & FINALE
In order to arrest someone, the player must go to the arrest computer, located
at police headquarters. Here, the player must fill out a document what the
crimes where who committed them and how they were committed. Fortunately, the
player doesn't have to write this from scratch. A standard form is provided with
blanks that the player fills in from a set of choices. The places to be filled
in are:
Person to be arrested
Crimes committed (one or two)
How kidnapper entered Tasker residence
When kidnapping occurred
What was used to subdue Randa Tasker
When murder occurred
What was used to kill Martin Tasker
When the murder occurred
Whether the ransom money was really a motive
The persons motive
- After filling out all of these items the player can select the arrest icon
(handcuffs). If the player has selected an invalid possibility (e.g. a confirmed
alibi) some of the other supporting
evidence isn't correct, the arrest will be rejected and 15 minutes will be
subtracted from the time.
If the arrest is approved, but it is the wrong arrest, either the chief will
come on and tell you why it isn't the correct person and then take you off the
case, or, in one case, you will go arrest the person and be stabbed for your
work.
If the arrest is approved and it is one of the two correct arrests, the finale
movie sequence starts. First, you go to the persons location, then, after the
arrest movie plays, you are told about a location where the hostage exchange
will occur. When you go there, the finale movie plays, followed by various
wrap-up activities.
