You say this one keeps people engaged with the information on every player's turn, but I would argue that most deduction games already allow you to get information on other player's turns, if you pay attention to, and think about what questions the other player's are asking, and why they might be asking those questions. One of the reasons I like Planet X is that they give you the space to track other player's questions, so you can use that info in your own deductions.
Emily and I discussed that after we played. Our point is that the public information is very evident here, so maybe more approachable for those not as well-versed in deduction games.
The most important thing that allow you to make deductions is: each character move to an adjacent room at every time. So if you know where someone was at time 3 and 5, you can probably deduct where he was at time 4 😉
Pretty cool, same designer from Turing Machine
This looks very interesting! I'm hoping to see it at Gen Con. Thanks for the preview!
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
I love Emily’s enthusiasm! She has sold that game to me!
You put a good deduction game in front of Emily, and you'll get enthusiasm for sure!
I like deduction and the way this card info is conveyed. Like Black Sonata. For many mysteries.

Indeed, but some of the room layouts make it less obvious than you might first think.
I don't think I've played any modern deduction games, but this looks really fun. I'm intrigued! Does it play well at 2 players?
Yeah. The solving of the puzzle doesn't really change at all based on player count.
😍
Deduction fan?
are the scenarios replayable? I didn't quite get that
I was reading a review about it on BGG and it seems they are not.
Not really, although if you came back to it after a year, you'd likely forget the answers.
