Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.14/day in the week to Sep 10 → 0.43/day in the week after.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.67/day in the week to Aug 4 → 0.14/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
About

The first game in the Methods series.
One hundred detectives compete against each other in a mysterious competition, solving mysteries created by criminal masterminds.
The detective who wins receives one million dollars and the opportunity of a lifetime. If a criminal wins, however, they will also receive a million dollars... and parole, no matter the severity of their crime.
Methods is a visual novel with simple crime investigation gameplay where you examine evidence and answer multiple-choice questions about the solution.
It includes 100 chapters totaling 139K words, taking approximately 10 hours to play through (though that varies greatly depending on your reading speed).

没有很多硬核的推理,但是故事情节真的蛮出彩,比起推理视觉小说更多像是一场群像冒险;人物刻画也不错,在有这么多角色的同时能把握住所有人的闪光点,同时让他们变得值得喜欢和印象深刻是不容易能够做到的事情。 游戏的幽默也非常不错,但是中文翻译不尽能传达,尽管已经翻译得很好了,贡献了一些非常不错的翻译(772的某句台词)。虽然有时候还会有明显的错误,例如有一段是说(大意):“我宁愿看湿油漆一边风干一边报税”但是被翻译成了“我宁愿一边报税一边看湿油漆风干”。很细微的差错但是几乎都能看出来,如果不是中文真的可读性更高,而我恰好又不想读英文的小蝌蚪线条,我一定会用英文玩。
很喜欢的游戏!!!!!!!!!!!!!特别优秀的群像作品,双关含量爽死人,支持锁头!!!!
所有人,立刻打开电脑游玩探案法:侦探大赛!
优秀的音乐,别具一格的画风 虽然前期的迷题和剧情差强人意,勉强及格 但后期的剧情又很好的弥补了这一点 总之就是很推荐
很棒的游戏!本地化做的非常棒,文本也很有趣,久违的开始食用异性恋产品。。。好吃好吃!
群像推理视觉小说,通关时长约10小时。 一百名侦探在神秘大赛中同台竞技,而大赛谜题出自一百名罪犯。比赛共五大关,两边按排名逐级淘汰,最终回是最强侦探和最强罪犯的较量,赢家可以拿走一百万美金,罪犯获胜还可额外获得假释。玩家需要跟随不同角色的视角,在比赛中破解谜题,为了金钱或其他理由击败你的对手,或者另辟蹊径寻找大赛的幕后主使,当然,和你的临时搭挡搞好关系也很重要。 画风又怪又酷,美术设计独特,音乐带感。人物设定完整,有细致的设定和赛前采访,还有人气角色片段集。每个人物都有独特的魅力。既有严肃的正义执行者,也有不断在比赛现场讲冷笑话的乐子人,更有比罪犯还暴力的疯子侦探。虽然部分推理不算出彩,但最终大关超燃。整体文本流畅,连一些双关语、谐音梗都很好的翻译了,读起来非常舒服。 最喜欢的角色是海尼和罗埃尔,帅气姐姐杀我。另外,没想到在侦探游戏里也能磕上CP。[spoiler]埃什顿和惨惨太配了,你们一定要搭档一辈子;7xx你这家伙速速跟尼尔告白,除了她没有人能受得了你的鸭子笑话。[/spoiler]
一款比较电波系的(伪)?推理群像小说游戏 比起硬核的推理本作品更像脑筋急转弯大合集? 可能会让盼着推理环节的玩家失望 但清奇的画风和艺术风格以及莫名其妙的梗语言反倒出奇的合我胃口 价格还不错 制作组一直也在努力更新和出新作品 体验下也许会有意想不到的体验
