FINALLY
I've been working on this damned update since march 2021 I really hope yall like it 😭
You can now meet ALL five love interests in this first official 'episode' of the game and there's
50,000+ words. (It. is. massive.)
180+ dialogue choice trees.
Animated CGs.
You can even get achievements for petting your cat.
Do you want to save the day and impress everyone with your might and wit and skill? Or do you prefer being an absolute menace who fist fights their mentor in his office and sets fire to fan mail? Why not both?
I been solo funding this project out of pocket for half a decade and I'm not going anywhere until its DONE; if you like the game, pls consider sharing with your friends, hyping it up on social media, or supporting me on Ko-Fi~
Herotome is completely free to play. It comes with a walkthrough if you tip (or have ever spent) 2.99$ or more on the itch.io page, but you shouldn't need a walkthrough to beat the game.
Have fun!!!
Proper link to the demo will be in a reblog so tumblr doesnt nuke this post from search engines XOXO

Ace Attorney Deaths: They say the defendant bludgeoned the victim with a convenient flat object. The circumstances themselves aren't impossible. But the information about the motive is coming from a parrot on the witness stand. Danganronpa Deaths: I thought we were all friends here but it seems SOMEONE couldn't resist killing someone and then dramatically revealing the body in some crazy, dramatic fashion. No thanks to whoever probably tampered with the crime scene to make it more interesting. Zero Escape Deaths: It's all normal murder. The weird part is that the victim came back to life as a clone, or everyone's killing each other, or there's cross-timeline transportation and the destruction of humanity involved. AI The Somnium Files Deaths: Who is the killer, and why would they keep doing THAT to the corpses? And can people stop dying for five minutes, we're only one route in and I don't know what's going on! Buried Stars Deaths: The murders are all kinda normal but we're a small cast and we're not solving this ourselves. Time to call in the big guns... the toxic Twitter feed. Process of Elimination/Tantei Bokumetsu Deaths: You take your eyes off this group for five minutes and they've somehow Rube Goldberged each other into the cruelest and most unusual way a person can possibly die, all without anyone noticing. Gnosia Deaths: The two options are "vanished into thin air" and "chucked in the freezer", and the second one's democratically sanctioned. But there's a secret third option, which is "thrown out the airlock for misgendering someone", and a secret fourth which is "slime". Your Turn to Die Deaths: It's not the murders that are cruel, it's the player's participation in the murders. Ghost Trick Phantom Detective Deaths: The first step of trying to keep someone from dying is watching them die and going, "THAT'S how you died?!" before rolling up your sleeves and fixing the situation. Paranormasight Deaths: In any other game, deducing how someone drowned in the middle of a field while bone dry would be the subject of a huge Ace Attorney style courtroom segment. In this game it's just "probably this one specific curse stone", and the hard part is finding out what criteria they fulfilled on a technicality to activate it.
she lets me hit because i *remembers i have nothing and no one* actually lets just stop talking for a little while
Hey hey, everyone! My name is Wren, and welcome to Otome Detective!
Currently Playing: Tokimeki Memorial Girl's Side: First Love Plus ~ Click here to view my Game Collection on Backloggd <3
I originally made this blog to talk about otome games only, but I had a rather long otome slump this year, during which I played the entirety of Persona 5 Royal (and a lot of Persona 3 Portable before the Akihiko social link made me start to miss my otome games again lol) so I'd love to talk about other games too, especially in the rpg & mystery genres!
If you'd like to read my about page, you can do so here.
If you'd like to read my thoughts on being an aromantic otoge player, check out this post here.
I plan to eventually write and share my personal reviews of certain otome games and routes, so stay tuned for that!
okay. which of you motherfuckers taught my vile little homunculus how to put on eyeliner

I'm Wren! I like otome games, rpgs, and mysteries! Feel free to reach out, as I'd love to chat! :)
