CaseCracker is a game developed by a solo developer and uses text and still images. The story of CaseCracker takes place in "Chicheng City". Players will be tested at the elite recruitment event of the Chicheng City Police Department. After entering the game, players will crack five different cases using the game's “CaseCracker System”.

In CaseCracker, each clue contains different and essential information about the case. Clues are interconnected. To move the case progress forward, finding information in the form of keywords within the text is necessary. These leads will allow the player to discover more clues and, eventually, allow them to deduce the truth in each case.

With detailed and nuanced localization, the game’s English version has a combination of puzzle ideas in an English cultural context.

The incredible crime-solving and adventure in the world of CaseCracker is now available on Steam for $11.99.
