It's more of a strategy game with what I think of as visual novel "cutscenes" with choices on the weekends and during pivotal moments.Overall, this is definitely more of a strategy\/puzzle game in the mystery genre. Each week, you receive various cases, and as the head of the Student Council, you are essentially the lead detective for these cases. You assign various girls to complete tasks based on their stats and the stats required for the mission, and there is a dice roll element as well to add some unpredictability. Tasks include things like interviewing or accusing suspects, searching rooms, and conducting stakeouts.Of course, you can also choose to pursue one of the girls romantically or as a friend during the course of your sleuthing. There is also a lot of replay value if you want to chase all the achievements, but good luck doing it without a strategy guide as some of them are time-dependent or based on careful stat-raising of certain girls fairly early on (or colossal luck, if you didn't stat-raise correctly before getting into the "main" storyline mysteries - some of them have REALLY high checks comparative to what you really need to solve most smaller cases successfully).PROS:Interesting conceptLots of replay valueNice artMultiple endingsRomantic and friendship routesUnique gameplayVN-esque, even if it really isn't oneCONS:Can get repetitiveNo voice acting. Fascinating game, have to use common sense and dice rolling to uncover randomly generated mysteries. Your team of investigators may or may not have a traitor in its midst.
