UPDATE #8 IS NOW AVAILABLE!
Have you ever wondered where the information about the dolls comes from?
Our new job is precisely about that, finding the information about the dolls before determining who the impostor is. To do this, we will have to use various objects to reveal these identities for each of the dolls.
IMPORTANT: Career mode is unlocked if you have a home on nightmare difficulty in classic mode
We will need to continue doing previous jobs in classic mode to earn money. This money will be needed to buy the items we will need for the case.
We will need some tools to do our job, such as a notebook, a camera, a flashlight, a book of souls, a bag, etc...
Each doll, name, alias, preferences, relationships, location, ratio, costs, mystery box probability, impostor, etc., is completely random and varies with each new case.
In this new career mode, you will have to evaluate certain cases and accept the one that suits you best. Each resolved case will provide precise details of everything that happened, rewards, and level-ups.
Depending on the case, there is a chance to obtain this mystery box. The box may contain some items that can save you from having to buy them, tools, or even treasures.
Multiple items are available through the store, take advantage when costs are very low to make your purchases.
You can also sell whatever you want.
It is extremely important that you photograph all the dolls. Failing to do so will result in a 90% penalty on the case.
This camera (Polaroid) will need to be developed after taking the photo, and this will be added to your case board.
Most necessary items are in the store; however, if you do not have the required level, you will have to make them yourself. In this case, you can buy all the necessary ingredients and craft a recipe (This is essential).
The board in career mode will display the name, photo, and alias of the dolls, and it will also preserve your cross-outs, so you can keep track of who you have ruled out every time you return to the game.
This is not a one-time adventure; it will be very common to have to enter and exit the location, return to the shelter, buy and craft some things, and then return to the location. You can travel as many times as needed, without penalty.
Five new stats and 14 new achievements have been added, some of which are synced to the statistics.
The large amount of new content and what solving a case can entail may be overwhelming, so I recommend playing in short sessions. For example, get the necessary items and solve only one doll, then come back later to solve another or similar. Keep in mind that you have to solve the information for 20 dolls, and with the developer's speed, this can take between 1.5 and 2 hours. Therefore, new players might take many more hours or even days.
This mode has a clear precedent and is paving the way for the upcoming multiplayer mode in the next update. The idea is that each team member will have a specific role, and various tasks can be divided, such as:
With four players, this can be reduced from 4 hours to practically 15-30 minutes per case.
Also, the idea is that each player is responsible for collecting and crafting their tools for the case and using them within the shared case, for example:
