What is Daily Detective?
Daily Detective is a daily murder-mystery game in which a single case is released each day. Players read a briefing, interrogate suspects and examine evidence, then must identify the killer, the weapon, and the motive before running out of a limited number of moves.
How to play
- Read the case briefing to learn about the victim, scene, and persons of interest.
- Interrogate suspects (use quick-question buttons or type your own) and examine evidence; each interrogation or examination uses one move and is saved to the Notes tab.
- When confident, make your accusation by selecting the killer, the weapon, and the motive (you get one chance).
Why play Daily Detective?
Play to solve a new murder mystery every day while tracking your detective stats and building a solving streak. The shared daily case lets you compare results with others and test deduction skills under a moves limit.
Reading the feedback
The UI displays a Moves counter (e.g., 0/10) and a Hints counter, and the rules state each interrogation or evidence examination uses one move. All interrogations are saved to a Notes tab. A Statistics area tracks cases solved, attempts, success rate, streaks, and time per case.
Modes

- archive

Tips & strategy
- Compare suspect alibis closely: the help text emphasizes inconsistent stories as key evidence.
- Use the Notes tab to review saved interrogations and evidence findings to spot contradictions.
- Conserve moves and use hints judiciously; each interrogation or evidence check consumes one move and hints are limited.
