Methods: Complete Edition Unifies Detective Visual Novel in One Release

• Methods: Complete Edition bundles all 100 chapters and DLC from the series into one package.
• Immerse yourself in a cat-and-mouse game featuring a legion of detectives and criminals.
• Solve the mystery through a straightforward multiple-choice quiz uncovering the culprit, method, and motive.

Over the past few months, we've been eagerly covering each new episode of the Methods series. This charming detective-themed visual novel is now available in one exciting collection, so if you want to play it from the beginning, you can dive into Methods: Complete Edition on iOS—and soon on Android.

This compilation includes all 100 chapters of the Methods series plus DLC, allowing you to experience the entire story in one go. The premise? One hundred detectives square off against 100 master criminals, with a million-dollar prize for the detectives and an unconditional pardon for the criminals on the line. The stakes have never been higher—and the cast of eccentric characters has never been more concentrated.

I've often compared Methods to Danganronpa, and for good reason. Its unique "ugly-cute" art and presentation echo that cult classic, but Methods leans into a more Western style of humor and storytelling, making it broadly appealing.

Madness in the methods

Methods' gameplay is just as inviting. You review the evidence and then select answers in a multiple-choice quiz to solve the mystery—whodunit, how, and why. It's simple yet effective, letting you form your own conclusions.

Another key appeal is the range of detectives you'll meet. With each of the 100 chapters focusing on a new character, you’ll get to uncover their quirks and abilities along the way. If you've been hesitant to jump into the Methods series, now might be the perfect time.

Once you've finished Methods, if you're craving more story-driven adventures, give another one a try. Interestingly, Mutazione—another point-and-click title—has just launched on mobile. Why not check out our App Army's thoughts on it?
