Description
Detective Grimoire has been called to investigate a murder.
The owner of a small tourist attraction, found deep within the heart of the marshes, seemingly killed by the very mythical creature his attraction is based around... Explore the surrounding area, inspect the scene of the crime, grill the suspects, solve puzzles, search for clues and uncover the secret of the swamp!
"Definitely one of the better crime games I've played and it's a treat to experience"
- Mark Brown
"Detective Grimoire is a better detective game than the likes of, say, L.A. Noire [...] The designers knew what they wanted the game to be and ensure that nothing got in the way of it. As a result, it’s thoroughly enjoyable"
- Chris Priestman

MAKE ANOTHER GAME PLEASEEEEEE
I had so much fun playing this game that I honestly need a second one or a third or a FOURTH, please please make another game. I will buy it and play it, I am obsessed with this game so another one would be even better, PLEASE🙏🏻
2022-05-25
High Quality
I found this game after playing it’s sequel, Tangled Tower, on Apple Arcade.
Tangled Tower is exceptional: it took all the good bits from Detective Grimoire and expanded on them to make an even better game. Detective Grimoire is still an excellent 5 star game. I recommend you play both!
2020-10-11
Amazing Game !!
I played both games and loved them both !! Me and my family play together, and we’re excited for another sequel.
2020-07-21
AMAZING
I downloaded the game around 1am and finished it by 4:45am the game is so entertaining & has a lot of detail. Honestly worth the money spent, both this and tangled tower do not disappoint. Please make more content like this! And if you’re thinking about buying & downloading just do it, you will not regret it. 11/10

Short but a lot of fun
Great little game, probably one of the more memorable mobile games. Adventure games play really well on mobile, but I just wish this game had been longer and taken up a larger area.
2019-03-26
Love this game
Hope they make another one soon!
2019-03-16
Engrossing and entertaining!
Loved this game, the design and soundtrack are great, the game challenging but not frustrating, good story and pace.
I agree the game was short, but I’m actually happy with the length and I played it through in one long sitting - because I couldn’t put it down.
If more in this series are made I will definitely play!
Great job on this one!
2019-02-11
Great game 😄
Wow this game charming 😃
2018-04-15
A charming experience
The writing, voice acting, and character animation are all GREAT. Some of the Phoenix Wright style mechanics are awkward, such as how when you have to Connect two different pieces of evidence with each other, you have to mix in sentence fragments to link them instead of just directly connecting A to B. I also got stuck near the end and had to look up the location of one hidden item so that I could finish the game. In conclusion the game play itself isn't amazing but the characters just ooze personality.

Super fun and too short lived
Beat the game really fast but I had loads of fun, need more games like this quality!
2016-08-09
Short but fun
It's not every long but the story was nicely done and I enjoyed it

Detective Grimoire
Best detective game I've played in a long time! I need more!
2016-02-26
PLEASE MAKE MORE!!!
Great story, great voice acting, good sense of humor, logical progression and fitting mini games. One of the most interesting point and click adventures I've played in a long time. The only criticism I have is that the game mechanics were a little bit tiring. ie. tapping on something that's already been dealt with while searching for further clues, and having to hear monologue over and over, requiring several taps in order to exit. Same goes for the notebook and clues.
There is a teaser at the end hinting at more episodes, but the app came out on iOS in 2014 and there hasn't been anything since. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE MAKE MORE!
2016-02-17
Fun. NEEDS A SEQUAL!!
I think the idea and system was adapted from the Japanese game 逆转裁判. Good story.
There should be a setup option where we can choose the speed of the dialogue. It goes too fast for me.
2016-01-17
Fun!
Pretty fun! Dialogue focused. Clicking-interface could be improved but does not make it any less engaging. Waiting for more episodes!
2015-10-29
Best mystery game ever!
Omg please do others I play like for 2 week because it was so difficult and fun. And its free please do mooore
2015-08-12
GREAT GAME
Love this game but when is the second part coming out?? I'm waiting!!
2015-03-07
Great job!
Fun game. Enjoyable.
2014-12-27
Pour quand un Détective Grimoire 2 ?!
Vraiment bon jeu, assez simple en général mais histoire bien ficelée ! C'est rare qu'un jeu bien fait comme ça est gratuit, wow!
2014-11-17
Awesome!
Very unique, great interface, animation and voice acting. Cool story too! I had a great time playing thud and would highly recommend it for players of any age. I wish it was longer though - I didn't want it to end! Can't wait for the next one!
2014-10-21
EXCELLENT!!!!
My granddaughter played the first half with me for 4hrs!! For a 7year old to be engaged that long is amazing enough... But then I got into the game myself and couldn't put it down!!!! Loved it!!!
And the price is right.... It's not too long but long enough....... You will just find yourself wanting more because you LOVE IT!!!
PLEASE MAKE #2
2014-09-01
Could be a bit better
The game has what I would call watered down, we'll just about everything except for the voice acting ,animation and music. The game wasn't to challenging and I finished it a bit to quickly. It is at least one dollar to expensive for the amount of play time. Although it does appear to be a good series in the making. Though if you do make a sequel please try and make it a bit better.
2014-08-30
100% completion
This game is probably THE best mystery game I have ever played. The story is great, the graphics are charming, and I had (almost) no idea who the criminal was.
2014-08-08
Not especially difficult, but well worth playing
I really enjoyed this game! The art was attractive, atmospheric, and complimented the game play nicely; the characters were entertaining and well designed; the mystery was intriguing, if a little predictable; and, as others have already mentioned, the voice acting was top notch! I'm looking forward to the next case!
2014-07-23
Fantastic!
Difficulty: too easy in my taste; it was a bit predictable
Animations: appropriate & cute
Voice acting: very well done
Music& ambiance: fit the setting perfectly
Graphics: wonderful! I liked the style of characters
I love all the details and cannot wait until the next one comes out!
2014-05-15
Please make Detective Grimoire 2!
Amazing game, but a little short for the money. I recommend everybody gets this game! Also I'm expecting number 2!
P.S. (Sarcastically) yes haha I said "number two." Very funny...
2014-02-25
Loved it, want more!
I found this game very entertaining and it had just the right amount of challenge to keep me interested.
Loved the unique story and design. Hope they put more episodes out soon!
2014-01-28
Great voice acting
Voice acting and animation are both top notch. The game & puzzles were far too easy though, with many repeated clues. I guess I should stop playing games for preschoolers.
2014-01-22
Good interactive story and small puzzles
Fan of SFB since decline of video gaming as bought this because it came from them. Art and animation is 4/5 : the characters look good. Sound is 3/5 : music fits theme but nothing memorable however the voice acting is amazing. Gameplay 3/5 : fun click ad find with occasional puzzles, the "logic" games are okay. Story 5/5 : interesting story cementing what seems to be a series in the making. Keep it up guys. Hope the next one is a dollar cheaper.
2014-01-16
Fun but short.
It's a fun little game to play, but not very challenging. The voices and the animation are great though.
2014-01-14
Loved it!!
Fabulous. Well worth the time and money. Please make another one :)
