01 / THE GUIDE
Story and Setting
The island of Paradise regenerates every few millennia, serving as a conduit for alien worshippers' psychic power aimed at resurrecting dead deities. Demons corrupt each cycle, and the Council’s murder on the eve of rebirth triggers the central mystery. Lady Love Dies, an “investigation freak,” is summoned from exile to uncover the killer.
Paradise’s lore is presented through bizarre relics and hieroglyph puzzles on ancient nightmare computers, revealing a surreal alternate‑future history. Every resident hides secrets, forcing players to weigh evidence against personal beliefs while shaping their own truth.
- Compare relic descriptions to puzzle clues for deeper context.
- Note how each suspect’s motive aligns with the island’s larger mythos.

Investigation Mechanics
Players collect evidence, record testimony, and interpret facts to construct a legal case. The case is taken to trial, where a conviction determines whether the crime is considered solved and Paradise is saved. Multiple killers and case strategies are possible, emphasizing personal truth.
Hieroglyph puzzles unlock new island areas, conceal evidence, and reveal secrets. Starlight, an electronic assistant, guides the investigative process.
- Document each piece of evidence before moving on.
- Use Starlight’s prompts to locate hidden clues.
