I enjoy it. I'm just curious unless i haven't noticed but i think you don't gain any progress if the game isn't launched so even though its an idle game i don't think there is any offline progress. I bought all 3 idles and i had them all open and on the corner of my screen at once. i enjoyed it but the moment i tried to play a different game while having it in the background it crashed my system. I don't have a strong pc. I'm literally playing on a Rog Xbox Ally X docked on a pc monitor so i think my ROG is limited with how many programs can be opened at once so i'll be playing the detective one more but sadly i wont be able to play another game while it's in the background. Great concept though. definitely recommend for those who has a better pc than i do for sure.

Epic Game!
really slow, i enjoy idle games but this is way too slow
《Desktop Detective》5/10 挂机,算不算游戏因人而异
Nowhere near as fun or good as card corner and desktop defender, progression is half the speed and every buff has a nerf that doesn't even encourage a synergy build.
I feel like Sherlock Holmes.
