Justice on the island is a bit twisted and our goal is to avoid a black and white morality, so it’s possible you’ll want to side with the wrongdoer.” – Antonina Melnykova, Lead Narrative Designer

Once you’ve found your suspect, no matter if they are the right person, you will get a chance to decide their fate. Some of these theories are easier and more convenient than the others, but it does not mean they’re correct. You can interpret your clues in a number of ways that can lead to different theories. We will have 5 main quests that span multiple hours and more than 30 side quests of varying size and complexity, with each offering a moral choice.” “In each main quest you’ll also have several suspects, and whether or not you will find the right one depends on how good a detective you are. “Currently we feel the main story will take approximately 15 hours to complete, while a completionist playthrough will be closer to a 30 to 40-hour mark.
