    Explore these time periods, collect multiple clues, and solve a 100-year mystery.

    ■Story

    The Shijima family have suffered a chain of inexplicable deaths over the past century.

    When Haruka Kagami, a mystery novelist, visits the Shiijmas, she finds herself taking on four different murder cases - occurring at different points in time.

    The red camellia and the Fruit of Youth, which invite only death.

    And the truth behind it all, waiting to be uncovered...

    ■ Gameplay

    Haruka Kagami, the main character, is an up-and-coming mystery writer.

    Play as Haruka Kagami and pit your wits against the murder cases.

    Each murder case comprises of three parts.

    The Incident phase: See the entire murder as it unfolds, from start to end. The keys needed to solve the mysteries surrounding the murder can always be found in the video itself.

    The Reasoning phase: Put together the [Clues] and [Mysteries] found during the Incident phase and create a hypothesis in your cognitive space. You can create multiple hypotheses, but not all of them will be correct. Some things you uncover may lead you down the wrong path.

    The Solution phase: Pin down the killer based on the hypothesis you created in the Reasoning phase. Select the correct hypothesis to determine the killer. When facing a trickier culprit, they may attempt to refute your claims, so strike back with your reasoning!
