Our take on DAEMON MASQUERADE
The bounce point arrives when investigation depends on arranging clues, writing annotations, and supporting theories with evidence. Players who want to move through a mystery without managing a pinboard or constructing deductions may hit that wall early.
What is DAEMON MASQUERADE?
This anime-inspired supernatural detective game follows Detective Lambda and Biblios, the Daemon of Records, during the 93rd Daemon Masquerade.
As the final contestant pair, they must identify six rival contestants and determine their Daemonic powers within seven days or face erasure. Their opponents may kill to protect their identities. Investigation centers on a pinboard where clues can be arranged in different layouts and annotated with written thoughts. The Thread of Logic deduction system supports multiple theories when the available facts back them up. The game draws inspiration from anime including Death Note and Fate/stay night, as well as detective games such as the Ace Attorney series.
