Process of Elimination

About

Process of Elimination drops you on a storm-battered island where elite detectives are picking off each other one by one. You play Wato Hojo, an amateur thrust into the chaos, piecing together clues from cryptic notes, forensic evidence, and suspect testimonies. Each chapter forces you to cross-examine allies turned adversaries, balancing logic and intuition to untangle lies. The killer’s identity shifts with every misstep, demanding you reassess motives and alibis as the body count rises. What sticks is the tight, cerebral gameplay blending adventure with social deduction. Players parse branching dialogue and environmental puzzles to isolate the murderer before they strike again. With a 78% critic score on Switch, it’s praised for its brisk pacing and twist-heavy narrative. The single-player focus lets you replay cases to test theories, though limited character depth keeps it from reaching mystery classics. Short but sharp, it’s a boardroom thriller for those who like their whodunits with a dash of urgency.
