About This Game

Witnesses don’t lie the same way twice.

In Linework, you’re a forensic sketch artist working cases in 1990s China, where story has gaps, every detail shifts, and the truth hides inside what people say. In Linework, you interview witnesses, learn their contradictions, and rebuild a suspect’s face from an imperfect memory. One line at a time.

With each case lies a mystery where you have to talk, compare, doubt, and redraw until the picture matches reality.

DIALOGUE DRIVEN INVESTIGATION

• Interview witnesses and extract details that don’t quite match

• Compare fragmented testimony to cross-examine contradictions and missing pieces

• Connect documents, clues, and statements to form a theory

• Solve cases that connect into a larger narrative

KEY FEATURES

• Forensic Sketch - Reconstruct suspects from conflicting witness accounts

• Drag, sort, and connect testimony and relevant evidence to deduct cases

• Standalone cases that connects to a larger truth
