Our take on On Your Tail

The vacation structure gives the mystery room for social scenes and leisure activities, but divides attention between solving the case and spending time around town. Players seeking an uninterrupted sequence of investigations may find that broader pace a trade-off.

What is On Your Tail?

Play as Diana, an amateur writer on vacation in Borgo Marina, where a phantom thief is troubling the locals.

Talk with villagers to take on quests, learn their stories, and find clues about the crimes. A chronolens lets Diana inspect crime scenes as they appeared before each incident. Then use a card system to arrange events and watch a diorama reenact the crime based on the cards played. Outside investigations, spend time with residents and take part in activities around town, including cooking, fishing, swimming, beach marbles, and arcade games. Part-time work, such as serving gelato, provides money to spend during the vacation.
