Me: Nice, I made great time on this game. Already accusing a murderer and everything. Hopefully I got enough clues to get it right. \u2026 Did I get it right? \u2026 Is it going to tell me if I got it right? \u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*Achievement*: You completed Act I!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Me: Act\u2026I? There\u2019s more than one Act? Oh. OH!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
