About Master Magistrate
Step into the shoes of Shimei Ooka, the newly‑appointed magistrate of Nakamachi, a town where cherry trees bloom year‑round. You will interview witnesses, collect evidence, and hold hearings to uncover the truth behind each crime while managing the duties of a magistrate’s office.
The game offers four distinct cases that together exceed twenty hours of story, featuring over 150 event CGs, a soundtrack of more than 40 original instrumental tracks, and full professional Japanese voice acting. Your helpers handle patrols, firefighting, and paperwork as you balance law‑making with personal relationships.
