Solving crimes requires the sharpest minds, seasoned criminologists, forensic pathologists, and analysts who use deductive reasoning to crack the cases of whodunnit, whendunnit, and whydunnit. Alternatively, you could gather 100 eccentric individuals under one roof and hope for a breakthrough; though unrelated, this brings us to the latest release—Methods 4: The Best Detective is now available on iOS and Android!
Methods 4 is the fourth installment in the gripping Methods series of crime thriller visual novels. As we approach the thrilling conclusion, the stakes are higher than ever. In this part of the quirky crime thriller series, you continue the saga of a hundred detectives vying for the ultimate prize in a competition unlike any other. Your mission? Solve crimes orchestrated by the most cunning criminals on Earth. Triumph, and the detectives win a million dollars; fail, and the criminals not only get the same amount but also parole, regardless of their crimes.
In Methods 4, you dive deeper into the twisted world of this strange game, confronting its masterminds head-on. Use your deductive skills to scrutinize crime scenes and answer critical questions that will unveil the method and motive behind each crime.
**Just one more thing—**Methods employs a unique release strategy, dividing a single release into multiple parts. Priced at a very affordable $0.99 each, it's an accessible way to dive into this series without any financial commitment. With only one more part to go, the tension is palpable.
The game boasts a distinctive, quirky art style and gameplay mechanics reminiscent of crime-thriller visual novels like Danganronpa. Interestingly, it comes from the same studio that developed Brotato, marking a notable shift from bullet heaven to this intriguing narrative-driven experience.
