How to play AI Interrogation
If you have just opened the game and are looking at a terminal wondering what to type, this page is the five minutes that saves your first run.
What you are actually doing
You are not solving a mystery. The case file opens by naming the crime and the person sitting opposite you — Case 1 tells you outright that the suspect is Marcus and the crime is the murder of Sarah Jenkins. Your job is to get an admission out of someone who already knows what they did.
The suspect is a language model answering in real time. It improvises, gets defensive, and invents alibis on the spot. That is why no two runs read the same and why memorising someone else’s questions does not work.
The controls, such as they are
- Read the case file first. It names the crime, the suspect, and usually a detail the police already have — that detail is your evidence.
- Type your question into the terminal in plain English. Full sentences. You are talking to a person, not entering a command.
- Watch the stress indicator. It rises when you press with hard evidence or catch a contradiction. If a question moved it, that line of attack is working.
- You get ten questions to start. Run out and the suspect walks — although in recorded footage a paid top-up is offered at that point.
The three mistakes that lose a first run
Asking “did you do it?”
You will get a denial, the bar will not move, and you have spent 10% of your run. Save the direct demand for after the story has holes.
Following their suggestion
Suspects hand you other people to investigate — a catering company, a whole crew who own the same tool. Chase it and they have spent your question for you.
Going in aggressive
The game states it plainly: push too hard and they shut down, go too soft and they lie. The runs that end in confessions are calm and specific.

Case 1 start to finish, including the moment Marcus breaks. This is the run our Case 1 quotes are transcribed from.
Case 1 played start to finish, including the moment Marcus breaks. If you would rather watch than read, this is the whole thing.
Open with something that costs you nothing and buys a whole statement: ask them to walk you through the evening from start to finish. Let them talk. Then pick the one detail the case file contradicts — in Case 1 it is the time he says he left — and put the two side by side.
When the story shifts in response, say so out loud. Quoting their own previous answer back at them is the move that breaks suspects in every recording we have. Then, and only then, ask why they did it.
