About Case Closed

Case Closed is a detective game built from your own study notes. Something cute has gone missing in the city, like the museum's Golden Cupcake Trophy or Pepper the Parrot from the zoo, and five animal suspects were seen nearby. Your job is to find out which one took it.

Tap a place on the city map, then tap things in that place to inspect them: a bench, a cake stand, a pile of crates. Every inspection asks a multiple-choice question from your notes. A right answer gives a sharp clue card, like "the thief wears a top hat" or "the thief has no scarf". Clues are pictures with a green check or a red cross, so there is very little to read besides your study question.

A wrong answer is never a dead end. The right answer is shown, you can ask for an explanation, and you still get a smudged clue that clears one suspect. Tap a smudged clue in your notebook to look again with a new question and make it sharp. Questions you missed also come back a few questions later.

Your notebook shows every suspect with their hat, coat color, held item, glasses and scarf. Tap a clue to light up the matching trait on each suspect, and tap suspects to cross them off. When every place is searched, name the thief. A wrong guess shows the clue that clears that suspect, and you guess again. The right guess starts a chase and an arrest.

Each case ends with up to three stars: one for closing the case, one for naming the thief on the first try and one for a sharp eye, when most of your clues were sharp. Every case is generated fresh, with new suspects, places and clues, and it always has exactly one answer.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I solve a case in Case Closed?

Search every place on the map and answer the questions to collect clue cards. Each clue tells you something the thief has or does not have. Cross off suspects who don't match, then tap Name the thief and pick the one who is left.

What happens when I answer a question wrong?

You see the right answer and can ask for an explanation. You still get a smudged clue that clears one suspect, and you can tap it in your notebook to look again with a new question.

Is Case Closed timed?

No. The game waits for you on every question, so you can take as long as you need to read.

What if I accuse the wrong suspect?

They show you the clue that proves they are innocent, they are crossed off, and you guess again. You only miss the First try star.

Is every case different?

Yes. Each case picks a new missing treasure, five suspects with different outfits, a set of places and a new set of clues, and it is always built so exactly one suspect fits every clue.
