User blog:Dschehuti/A Rondo of Fate and Mystery

Okay, since Hitsuji Mamoru proposed moving it into a blog post, I'm gonna try it like this.

So... what exactly is this supposed to be? Well... I want to play a game! To celebrate Umineko-Day, October the Fourth and because it coincided with the Re-Run of the Halloween event I got the idea to invite everyone here to a Murder Mystery Game. This game follows the rules laid out by the Visual Novel "Umineko - When they Cry" of Ryukishi07, it is the sequel to the critically acclaimed Higurashi series and in my opinion the most intelligently written story ever created.

Here are rules of Umineko: The Gamemaster (me) presents a tale of seemingly impossible murders. In this narrative I will claim that the murders will be carried out by Beatrice, the Golden Witch, who is powerful enough to act outside all boundaries of logic. But every murder is solvable! And the job to figure out the truth, is yours truly. To do that, you can use the Blue Truth! Everything said in blue is true as long it is not refuted by hard evidence or the Red Truth. The Red Truth however is the Truth and only the Truth. As the gamemaster, I can strike down your theories by revealing crucial information bit at a time.

So... can you solve all the riddles and find the truth behind this unofficial Umineko Halloween collab?

May the Game begin!
