Update Notes for August 16thSmall plot inconsistencies fix. Updated Chinese version to reflect these changes.
Details below (spoilers).
Chapter 14: Roel now says that she is able to tell Honor apart from Red July. This is more consistent with her own method and how Honor's method works. It's also less confusing considering the conceit of the chapter (The detectives are pretending not to know Honor was acting as Red July if Roel can't actually tell Honor from Red July, then it unnecessarily complicates the situation even more). This change also helps foreshadow the events of the Sixth Stage.
Chapter 23: 772's alternate theory about the method of death had a big flaw that some reviews of the game have touched on. Namely, you can't choke yourself to death, much less cut off your own head, for the simple reason that you would lose consciousness before you died. I've changed it so that now he suggests a simpler and more reasonable "hanging" explanation, where gravity does the work of slicing off the victim's head rather than the victim themselves.

One hundred detectives compete against each other in a mysterious competition, solving crimes created by the world's smartest criminals.
The detective who wins receives one million dollars and the opportunity of a lifetime. If a criminal wins, however, they will also receive a million dollars... and parole, no matter the severity of their crime.
Methods is a visual novel with simple crime investigation gameplay where you examine evidence and answer multiple-choice questions about the solution.
It includes 100 chapters totaling 139K words, taking approximately 10 hours to play through (though that varies greatly depending on your reading speed).
