About Paper Trails
Paper Trails follows Justina Smith, a newly hired clerk at the Azure City Police Department, as she investigates suspicious crimes. Working with the eccentric detectives Ernest Hunt and Sophie Swift, you examine crime scenes, question suspects and uncover what lies behind the paper trails.
Five connected cases
The five cases each have their own narrative and contribute to one larger mystery. You investigate Azure City's largest investment firm and expose dealings tied to robbery, embezzlement and murder. The cases take you from wealthy manors to parking garages.
Investigate and interrogate
You examine crime scenes for clues, including evidence hidden in unlikely places. Use logic to determine which pieces matter and solve the puzzles you encounter. You can also take statements from bystanders and review them carefully, since not everyone is honest. Once you catch a prime suspect, bring them to the station for interrogation and expose their crimes.
People of Azure City
Explore a diverse cast of characters, including a tea-loving lawyer, a cowboy barber, a magician and a cat. Each person you speak with has a range of dialogue to discover. You can also befriend a cat.
