The Zodiac Trial

The Zodiac Trial is a story-driven game in which you play as Mouse, a law student caught up in the Zodiac Race. Along with 11 other jurors, you face a choice: work together to solve puzzles and reach the truth, or betray one another in search of a way out. The game contains over 30 hours of main story content.

The jurors

The 11 other jurors can become allies or enemies. They include the composed Ox, the mysterious Snake and the dimwitted Rooster. You can befriend or betray the people you meet.

Puzzles and scenarios

The game includes brainteasers ranging from written riddles to murder mysteries. Across 13 different scenarios, you may encounter locked-room murders, a turf war among the jury, or a political contest for votes sparked by a Trinket.

Choices and endings

Your choices lead to more than 52 endings. Each ending unlocks a custom Death Card representing how that outcome ends, often with Mouse's death. It may also be possible to find a way for everyone to get out alive, though that does not necessarily bring the chaos to an end.

Additional modes

After completing the main game, you can unlock an additional mode designed to shed light on certain truths. A Narrator's Commentary also provides insight throughout the game, alongside a number of quality-of-life options.
