by Noah Feb 26,2025

Erabit Studios' Methods series concludes with its fifth and final installment, now available on iOS and Google Play! This final chapter promises increased complexity and challenges for players.

What is Methods?

Methods is a visual novel where 100 detectives compete against criminal masterminds to solve a series of crimes. The stakes are high: a $1 million prize and a life-changing opportunity for the winning detective, while the criminal mastermind stands to gain parole. Despite the serious premise, Methods employs a lighthearted tone, stylish artwork, and Danganronpa-esque visual flair. Gameplay involves simple observation and multiple-choice questions to solve crimes.
