Developed by Creatures Inc. and published by Nintendo, “Detective Pikachu” is a single-player, adventure game that focuses on a character named Tim Goodman, who partners with the self-proclaimed gumshoe, Pikachu. The pint-sized yellow Pokemon will help Tim uncover the mysteries plaguing Ryme City including the one surrounding the disappearance of Tim’s father, Harry.
Players will have to take the lead in the sleuthing process by observing scenes, finding clues, taking notes and gathering testimonies to crack the cases. The game has over 150 fun-filled animated cutscenes of Pikachu, most of which will help players solve the mysteries.
Players also have the capacity to interact with various Pokemon and characters throughout Ryme City. For example, they can talk to police lieutenant Brad McMaster for more intel on the biggest case in the city. There’s also a man named Mike Baker who used to work with Harry, so he could be a good source of vital information. There are many other people in the city players can interact with, but they should be careful on who to trust.
For players who are new to sleuthing, “Detective Pikachu” has an Easy Mode. In this mode, Pikachu will provide all of the handy hints on what they should do next or where to go to look for more clues. Learn more about “Detective Pikachu’s” gameplay here.
