A investigative journalist is murdered while jogging. The final installment of Creative's Murder Mystery series shares the same overall design with the previous games. The player has 6 hours to solve the murder, and time diminishes with each action executed (interviewing suspects, examining items on the crime scene), with the exception of a brief case summation that can be played without any time decrease. After gathering enough evidence (stored automatically in the notebook area), the player can call a press conference and answer questions about the case. If this questionnaire is filled correctly, the game moves to its second level, where the player must present the case to the judge.There are three possible solutions to the crime. The player can select directly one of the three game paths at the beginning of the game. Each has small alterations and different clues, although the setting remains the same.
