You might find some clues while chatting with your subjects throughout Jenny LeClue – Detectivu, but their behaviors while being interrogated might reveal even more.
Jenny’s mother has been accused of murder, and you’re pretty darn sure that’s not true. It’s a great time to have such a clever daughter, though, as you and Jenny will work together to uncover the seedier side of your home town and find the real killer.
Someone in this town knows what really happened, and you get to be the one to find out who. This means interrogating many of the quirky folks in town and seeing what shakes free when you press them for information. That said, these people won’t necessarily give up everything just because you talk to them. You have to watch the townsfolk for visual cues (like shifty movements or glancing away from you) to find out their real motivations and the truths they’re trying to hide.
If you miss one of these things, you might just change the direction of the story. The narrative of Jenny LeClue – Detectivu is being written by an author within the game as you play it, and your choices for her actions will alter the story (and the author’s own) in some neat ways. You can accidentally shape Jenny’s story in some unintended ways, making your investigation a bit more challenging as you head toward the game’s cliffhanger ending. Don’t let your mother down, now.
Jenny LeClue – Detectivu is available now on GOG, Apple Arcade, and Steam.
