How to play the game?

[JohnnyTheWolf]

I want to love this game, but I am not sure I understand what I am supposed to do. What exactly is my goal here?

Do I just need to watch all the clips? Do I have to place them in the User Session bar in chronological order or do I only have to find incriminating clips?

Finally, is there a point to User tags or is it just a cosmetic feature?

Thanks in advance!

You need to work out what happened by finding as many clips as you can manage.

The user session stuff is just for saving clips you want to easily check later.

Something put into user tags can then be searched for later. Personally I put the date and time (hour and minute as shown in the thumbnail) for every clip so I could then get back to them chronologically.

I am not sure I get your method. Does that mean you have to remember every date and time? :S

I don't put times, but I put dates. It's not exactly that helpful though overall, because you can only see the first 5 videos (15 later when you unlock ADMIN mode after you finish the game.) What adding tags DOES do is allow you to sort of "cheat" near the end. Every video has the tag "BLANK", if you change the tags on the videos, then anytime you're struggling to complete a video you can just search "BLANK" and find videos.

Now, doing this is against the spirit of the game, but some of the videos are VERY difficult to find as they contain maybe only one or two words tops.

The best way to go about playing is to look up common phrases and things. There are many reoccurring themes/evidence/details/days/pronouns that will unlock multiple videos. The game can be ended once you hit 50% you'll receive a little notification that will allow you to quit the game if you so choose.

There technically isn't an official end though, as you can keep playing and searching as much as you want. Eventually you can interpret everything yourself as you see fit, and when you're satisfied, you can quit.

Okay, so this is not at all like a Phoenix Wright game or anything.

Thanks for the clarification!
