How to Play Metropolis Crime$
Quick start
Read the first crime scene and inspect one highlighted clue. Compare its viewing and use options, complete the requested manipulation and remember what the result reveals before questioning a witness.
Controls
Use the DS stylus to inspect a scene, select Observe or Use, and follow the object’s displayed gesture. Viewing arrows change angle or magnification. Choose interrogation topics and answer within the displayed time, then use the office analysis panels to compare collected evidence.
Metropolis Crime$ — About this game
A murdered friend draws detective Red Johnson into four linked investigations in Metropolis. Examine scenes for clues, switch between observing an object and using it, and perform touch actions such as removing a screw or collecting a fingerprint. Witness questioning tests details you have seen or heard, while the office computer compares evidence and the final report asks you to assemble the case. Read carefully before an interrogation’s timed questions. Begin by inspecting the first scene and experimenting with one object’s viewing controls; deliberate gestures make the interaction easier to understand than repeated random tapping.
