Thanks for the wonderful comment and glad you had fun! Hopefully the unsolved mystery adds to the worldbuilding of your world and lays the foundation for future mysteries.

Thanks for the question! You want to match the suit and number of the showdown card to the suits and numbers of all previously drawn clue cards.
Let’s say you draw the 10 of spades as your showdown card:
- If you have one clue card with a 10 and another clue card with spades, you have the full solve.
- If you have one clue card with a 10 but no cards with spaces or vice versa, it becomes the partial solve (i.e. solved but with no hard evidence).
- Finally, if you don’t draw any 10s or spades in your clue cards, the case is unresolved.
Hope that helps!
Thanks for the comment! There’s no hard rule for shuffling - shuffling after each case will result in the most randomness and lower chances of the complete solve for each case, so you can shuffle after each case to increase difficulty.
Alternatively, you can shuffle only after you run out of cards to draw. This signifies the growth of your club’s ability to resolve mysteries through the experience they’ve built up over the many cases they’ve encountered, with a shuffle indicating that a new era of mysteries have come into play that require new ways of thinking.
Let me know which works better for you - I’ll think about incorporating this in another iteration!
Hi there!
First time submitting to any game jam (thanks for the opportunity!) so I have a question on general submissions - is it possible to submit something and then update that submission afterwards?
I have finished the bulk of the written content but don't know if I'll have time to play around with illustrations - is it better to just submit once I'm happy or could I submit an update as well?
