About
Become a detective and get to work solving nine distinct, self-contained crime scene conundrums. To progress, you'll need to scour the evidence, analyze witness statements, collect relevant keywords, and make smart deductions.
Solve a series of twisty, tricksy murder mysteries.
Examine evidence, read witness statements, and collect deduction words that you'll use to solve each case.
The cases in Mini Murder Mysteries pay homage to (and build upon) tropes from across detective fiction – from dusty old manors to Ancient Egyptian museum exhibits, and from restaurant kitchens to cutting edge biochemical labs.
Leave no stone unturned as you gather clues and discover truths.
Cross-reference information. Piece things together. Use lateral thinking.
Each case's murder board is chock-full of evidence – from incriminating correspondence and fingerprint reports, to burner phones and distracting red herrings. Read about each object, collect special 'Deduction Words' as you go, and build an ironclad picture in your mind of what really happened.
Witness or suspect? Every case offers "useful" input from people closest to the victim.
Along the way you'll encounter power-mad movers and shakers, innocent bystanders, gamblers, spies, liars and lotharios. And, who knows, maybe even a lifelong nemesis?
It's up to you to work out who's telling the truth – and use your intuition to see through the lies.
Sort the coincidental from the crucial to make smart deductions.
Each of Mini Murder Mysteries' nine unique cases revolves around 24 'Deduction Words' that you'll use to assert whodunit. The problem? You'll only need a handful of those words to make the correct conclusion.
That means you'll need to get good at sifting through events, statements and information to weed out what's irrelevant and what's key to each case.
Close your case list and you might even unravel a deeper, interconnected mystery...

This was a great klittle murder mystery game for someone who doesn't have a ton of spare time for gaming.
Short little Gold Idol style game that scotches the mystery investigation itch. Has a lot of promise I'm looking forward to a new batch of cases in the future.
Enjoyable little mysteries! Took me about about 3 hours to solve them (I took a little lunch break in the middle), I recommend playing in windowed mode if - like me - you like to alt-tab to screen shot evidence in mystery games (I had a little graphics hang with alt-tabbing while full screen). Dialogue & text is good, well written English, user interface for solving the mysteries is reliable and intuitive. Low frustration design (hints and solve progress tools are available in game). Very little friction between player and solving. Recommended.
Good game. The spare use of graphics and pulpy dialogue do a good job at painting a scene. I like the detail that each case's bulletin board is themed after the case itself -- for example, peeling wallpaper for a motel murder. The cases are what you'd expect, but executed competently. Only downside is there are typos, at least two per case that I've seen.
This was a fun little way to pass the time and the mysteries were just the right amount of difficulty for a chill evening or afternoon.
This was a super fun little game! Quick play through, and I enjoyed the UI feature of being able to see how many words/items are wrong rather than having to default to hand-holding or using all the hints. I loved the little twist at the end (won't spoil it!), it added a fun extra layer to the game. Highly recommend if you want something puzzly but digestible/not overwhelming.
That was a lovely little game. Don't rush it, grab a cup of tea or coffee and enjoy the short little murder mysteries. Good news I was sad when it was done but looking forward to the next chapter in the future. Great job!
Fun little game, especially for the price. Each mystery is perfect for when you've got a spare 15-20 minutes. Would love to see a sequel or DLC case packs.
A great small game
Short fun little mystery game, well worth the low price. Only real things that bugged me were the underwhelming ending to the plot and the solution to the second-to-last case, where I figured out *what* happened fairly quickly but then got stuck mashing the hint buttons and guess-and-checking my way through because I couldn't figure out what specific combo of words the dev wanted me to use to indicate [spoiler]"an unidentified man I'm assuming was a spy stabbed another unidentified man I'm also assuming was a spy with a tree branch."[/spoiler]
