Investigations
Release						6 November 2024 (Update)
Episode						Crenopolis
Premium						Yes
Variant type						Bounty

Investigations are bounties offered in the Detective profession. They require a magnifying glass, and can be started by interacting with the investigations board in the Investigation Hall. The board offers two choices, and refreshes every two minutes. Only one crime can be investigated at a time, until it is completed or abandoned.

An investigation starts by choosing one from the board, then going to the locations shown in the bounties interface and interacting with the clues there. After discovering all the clues, players can return to the Investigation Hall and choose who to arrest from a lineup of suspects. The clues provide identifying information, such as name, appearance, or aura, that always narrows the choices down to only one potential suspect. Clicking "Info" for a suspect provides written details about them.
