What players say

Players describe A Matter of Murder as a fun, Clue-like deduction game with procedurally generated cases that each take about 10 minutes, giving it strong replayability. The minimalist art and witty English humor get frequent praise, though some find the cases repetitive over time and a few struggle with the time limit.
