Let's Play: Sleuth

[Mr. Hat'n'Clogs]

Maybe we're all her butlers and she was a slave driver?

Also, that leaves me, Lucky, Fish, and the Cap'n. Interesting.

[Peanut]

It's good to know that Hohenheim and I are nothing more then sewing enthusiasts.

The murder weapon is a mirror.

Oh the things I could say.

Care to reflect on this statement, Fish?

[goldenspines]

Since the murderer is suspicious, I have to work a bit faster now. I search through the three rooms on the right side of the house and again find NOTHING and NO ONE. B[

But, when I get to the ballroom....


Ah, finally, one of the elusive people. And you are staring at the floor! O: Let's ask where you were last night.



8C I'm just trying to solve a murder, don't hate me!
While I'm waiting for Fish to straighten out his attitude, I will check the floor. I mean, I already looked at it before, but Fish is staring at it and maybe I can actually see now.



8O Oh snap, I gotta move. Now that I know two of the three essentials of the murder, the murderer will be stalking me soon.

I'm short on time, answer my question, Fish. :[



I find Fish's response very funny for many reasons. But I will move on, since by this point in the game (about 6 minutes into it) I am starting to panic a bit, and my heart rate is going up. (I know, I know, it's not that tense here in drawn out screen caps, but just try to play it and you will know how terrifying it is. D: )

My next goal is to find Tsuku and see if Fish's alibi checks out.

I go to the vault next.


Oooh! The other elusive person. You and Tsuku could join a club, the "rummaging around in furniture club"

But let's ask you what you were up to last night.


Do I just not speak loudly enough for you all? D8

I don't have time for your rebelliousness, Hats, answer me!



As usual, Ante gets no love. 8( <3

BUT ORLY? I would hope it's obvious to most of you that someone is lying. Which pins down my suspects to Fish and Hat.
I need to find Tsuku!



EDIT: I also realize something now that I didn't realize while I was playing the game before. I could have solved the murder right here and right now. Don't give it away though if you know. O: I need to finish my screen caps. XD;

[goldy edit: I did ask you very nicely not to say the answer if you knew it. Please read my whole post next time]

<spoiler snip>

^_^

[Winry]

oooh I think I know who it is.... =)

[goldenspines]

In my pathetic defense, while playing this game, I did not have much to think back on my past info too much (my time was running very short and for all I knew the next room I walked into would be my last).

But since we all know the answer (or we think we do), let's follow the rest of my train of thought as I finish my investigation and try to survive.

Outside the vault...




I am being stalked! D8
By now, I am really panicking because I am in trouble. If I make one wrong move, I am done for. the murderer will lock me in a room and kill me. And no, I don't know why a stupid DOS game gets me so worked up. ._.;;

My search for Tsuku takes me to the bathroom (I dare not go in the murder room again until I am ready to make my accusation)



Well, this is awkward.
I...er, feel like I'm interrupting something, really. >_>; But, I need to continue my investigation.



Is it just me or does Tsuku seem overly-friendly now? Quite the switch from previously ignoring me completely. B|
BUT OH
Here's is the actual time i found out who the murderer really was and I found myself remembering this thread.

I bet I'm the killer.

O_______O

WHAT THE HECK? STAY OUT OF MY COMPUTER! D8



No really, the game is random in choosing the murderer (or is suppose to be >_>]http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k99/goldenspines/game36ed.jpg[/IMG]



So far, so good. Again, I cannot express my exact mood during this point in text very well. But, if it helps in understanding any. I had a cup of tea when I started this game. It was still full and COLD when I finished.

Anyways, I'm not dead yet!


Oh thank goodness, it's only Hat. And why are you hiding? Haven't you ever seen a person carrying a bloody mirror around before?

Okay, time to call the conference.



*points at Fish* You are the murderer!

(I'm trying to be dramatic, really, I am >_>)



That's me. I'm just doing my job of spoiling weekend plans. :3

I avenged you, Ante!




Okay, yeah, I'm going to admit to you all that is a rare ending to many of my Sleuth games. I usually don't find the magnifying glass that quickly, which gave me a huge advantage in the game.


But hey, that was fun, right? Or not. XD Let me know if I should play another game or not. If so, please post (and maybe volunteer to be in the next game?), if not, don't post and let this thread sink into the game forum forever. :3

Thanks for reading. *bows*

[Ante Bellum]

*rises up and hits Fish with a pipe wrench*

[Fish and Chips]

I bet I'm the killer.

PAGE ONE.

PAGE ONE.

Now who will ramble unintelligibly on the podcast?

[Tsukuyomi]

I had a feeling it was him, but just in a kiiddingaly matter XD;

A huge throw off would have been if I was.. I would have laughed so hard if that were the case xDDD

I wanna have another go, but I should give others a chance to have fun ^O^

[Winry]

Let's do another... I want to be in the next one! =D

[rocklobster]

me too! I promise I'll keep my ideas on who the killer is to myself.

[Mr. Hat'n'Clogs]

I think that if you want to you should do it again, but I'll step down for the younger generation to take charge for now. If only so I can come out of retirement and be killed.

[Htom Sirveaux]

Good stuff. If you do another one, I'd like to be in it.

[Cognitive Gear]

This was pretty awesome! I kinda want to play this game now.

[Tsukuyomi]

I doubt you won't get enough players, but if not, I'll be willing to play again 8D

Ooh, we should all guess who we think will be the killer once there is seven players (before the game starts), so it'll totally be blind guesses xDD

[Ante Bellum]

Wouldn't it be ironic if the next time Ante's in this game, that Ante is the killer?

[Peanut]

This was indeed awesome. I will be watching for future updates...again...

[Mr. Hat'n'Clogs]

Wouldn't it be ironic if the next time Ante's in this game, that Ante is the killer?

Ante's ghost has returned for revenge D:

[Tsukuyomi]

I would be both most scared and most amused if that happened, Ante XD

[Kung_Fu_Master]

If there's enough room then count me in.

[goldenspines]

If I don't take the people who volunteered last time, I have:

Winry
Rocklobster
Htom Sirveaux
Cognitive Gear
KungFuMaster

Any more takers? Otherwise, I will grab two of you by random and start another game.

*note, even if you were in the last game, you can volunteer again*

[CrimsonRyu17]

I've always wanted to be a murderer.

[Ante Bellum]

Well, if no one else I'd like to go another round.

[TheMelodyMaker]

Is it too late for me to volunteer, Goldie? *has been watching the thread as a guest~* ^_^

[goldenspines]

MelMak!



Thank you all for being so patient and I hope you continue to watch and enjoy this thread. m(_ _)m

Let's start another game, shall we? For the sake of variety, I will take all new people for this game. Here's the guest list:

- Winry Rockbell (Yes, you needed a last name, so I gave you one. XD)
- Rock Lobster
- Htom Sirveaux (this is going to be a pain trying to accuse you if you're the murderer. I will probably spell your name wrong. XD)
- Cognitive Gear
- Kungfu Master
- Crimson Ryu (sorry, the silly game wouldn't let me put in numbers. D: )
- Melody Maker

Okies dokie, another case to solve~



D: Winry! I don't know you very well, but I will avenge your death! (I hope >_>;; )
As you can see, the scenery has changed a bit to make the game more interesting. We are in a purple house.


Of course, my luck does not stay with me into this game. The magnifying glass is not in the first room I go into.
Let us question the agitated Htom.


Seems innocent enough, I suppose. o.o We will see though.
Also, side note, in case anyone is wondering why I stand so close to people when I question then. I am not trying to hit on them, it's just that they can't hear me from across the room (people in this game are hard of hearing or something).


Ah, you seem awfully relaxed, Melody Maker. Let's question you.


Orly? I mean, ON SNAP. This means that either you or Htom are lying (both claimed to be in the parlor). D:
Hmm, this is a bit frustrating. As I mentioned before in the previous game, the worst thing to start finding out at first in the murderer. I haven't even found the magnifying glass yet... This is not looking hopeful. But I will press onward.



I must find the magnifying glass at all costs now, so I am checking every room.



So, I know that Cognitive has nothing to do with narrowing down my two suspects, but I'm curious, so I'm going to question him anyways.



Why is it the guys with a motive always innocent? D:

Okay, enough chit chat, I need to find Crimson.



Oh wow, that was quick. We will find out the truth next update. (still no magnifying glass. I'm starting to worry quite a bit.)



LOLOLOL I just noticed that I spelled Crimmy's name wrong. I fail. XD;; I'm sorry, Crimmy! ;o;

[Ante Bellum]

Winry and Ante shall watch from above...

[CrimsonRyu17]

I have to question why I'm practicing waltz steps myself.

Name's no big deal. xD

[Winry]

MelMak!

Ouch. I didn't realize I was so unpleasant... =P
