A short murder mystery with many twists and turns! Take on the role of Alexander Octavious Fawkes, a detective infamous among both the Scotland Yard and the nobility. Use your detective skills to reveal the corrupt motives of the nobility and uncover the secrets behind the Murder of Crows! Reach out to the truth by using evidences and testimonies. Pinpoint carefully hidden contradictions in opposing testimonies and crush the lies that plague the Crows estate. Murder of Crows is a game that is a cross between the visual novel and the adventure genres. The player is tasked with solving a mysterious murder. To accomplish that, the player must cross-examine the few people in the mansion. During these examinations, they must find the contradictions within their testimonies and present the right evidence to prove them wrong. The player does this by presenting related evidences whenever the player spots an illogical fallacy. The player can also use the “press” mechanic to get additional info regarding multiple topics such as other characters, events or even clues during these cross-examination sections. There is also a conversation mechanic where the player can interact with most of the characters to learn even more about them, or some of the evidences they can present in-game. The game’s main focus is its story, so the game is pretty linear to allow smooth progress. Fly towards justice in this game filled with deceit!

I'm playing Murder of Crows, but whenever I click "press," nothing happens. I'm stuck in this conversation because I can't choose either press or present and I don't see a way to leave the conversation, either. Is this a bug or am I missing something?

10/10 Fascinating!
