Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking combat-focused gameplay may find the investigation-centered case loop too narrow.
- Those who want long, continuous missions may find the roughly one-hour episodes and separate case structure limiting.
- Players looking for a single uninterrupted mystery rather than multiple independent cases
Our take on MeiQi 2020
Players who want action or extended missions may hit a wall once the case loop settles into scene searches, puzzles, and clue connections. The collection is structured as separate investigations, and the vendor gives each episode an approximate play time of one hour.
What is MeiQi 2020?
MeiQi 2020 is a collection of 25 chapters covering Seasons 2 through 5 and a special episode in an episodic mystery series set in 1990s China.
Players take the role of police detective Liu Youth and investigate independent cases linked by a larger story. Each case can be played on its own and in any order. The core loop involves exploring locations, searching objects for evidence, solving puzzles, and connecting clues through deduction.

The vendor describes each episode as taking approximately one hour to play.
