PAPER
ALIBI

Tie the clue to the lie.

Small crimes on a paper stage. Look closely, find the detail that makes a story impossible, and tie a red thread from that clue to that lie. Then catch whoever did it.

Coming to Android

Paper Alibi is being made for Android phones. It is not on Google Play yet; this page is a preview of the game.

The first case opens: who took the trophy? Three small pictures show how to play

Tie the clue to the lie

How a case plays

  1. Tap what looks wrong. A pin goes in, and a note says what you found: "Rainwater. Under Maya's dress. Still dripping."
  2. Drag a thread to the lie. From a pin to somebody's story. If the clue shows the story can't be true, the story tears and they tell you another one. If not, the thread snaps.
  3. Catch who did it. One clue is the crime: the gold pin. Tie it to the person it fits, once their lie is out.
  4. Mind your threads. Five threads a case. Close it without snapping any for three stars, and climb from Rookie to Living Legend.
