Diary of Investigations

***Note:*** *This wiki is maintained by fans of the game, and is not affiliated with G5 Entertainment. If you are experiencing technical issues with the game itself, please contact customer support.*

Investigations (aka Cases) are part of the "Main Story" of the game. They can also relate to game Events. Players can access the Diary at the bottom left corner on the map screen. It looks like an open book. There are two sets of Investigations; one set for the Main City and one set for the Upper City.

## Investigation Pages

If you click on the open book icon on the main screen, you are taken to the page showing the current case you are working on. If you have finished all investigations, you will be taken to the first case. The case for the **current event** is treated a bit differently; you can view it via the green tab on the upper left corner of the book (see Other Places You Can Get To).

> **You must be in the Main City when you open the diary in order to see the Main City cases. You must be in the Upper City when you open the diary in order to see the Upper City cases.**
>

You can scroll back and forth through the cases by using the numbers and arrows along the bottom of the book. You can only see the cases for the part of the city that you are currently in.

On each case's page, you can track your progress during an investigation. The page shows important information like how many stages there are in the case (usually five) and a summary of each stage. To complete a stage of an investigation you need to complete one full collection and assemble it. If you click on the icon of the investigation prize on the left side of the page, it will tell you what that prize does.

Completing a case (a type of Quest) will contribute toward raising the rank of your Master of Investigation Totem. Please see that page for details.

When you finish all the cases in the diary, both Main City and Upper City, then there are no new cases until a new event comes and brings a new investigation.

## Other Places You Can Get To

On the upper left side of the diary book is a green tab with an arrow. If you click on the tab, you are taken to a drop-down menu with 4 options.

**Event** takes you to the current event's case page
**Moments** takes you to the section showing all your stickers earned from current and past events
**Investigations** takes you to the current case you are working on
**The City** takes you to a series of pages about the City of Shadows. These pages include the first 6 chapters of the Diary, and various Character Rooms such as the Detective's Room, and Juliette's Room. Eventually, more rooms will be added to this section of the Diary.
## Unlock Order

It's important to understand that the cases do not unlock in order after a certain point and from there it's seemingly random as to what case unlocks next. In order to unlock a case, players must be at the required level **and** have completed previous stories. By "previous stories" the game means previous cases. If you are looking for a previous case, you will need to check your entire diary, Upper City included.

A common reason for having more than one in-progress case is that you did not finish an event case during the event timeframe. You can resume working on the previous event case if you want (see next section). Another reason for more than one in-progress case is the occasional game glitch. The game has been known to give out several new cases even though you have not finished your current case.

## Resume a Different Case

You can go into your diary to "resume" a different investigation. This effectively pauses the current investigation. Open the diary. It will take you to your current case. Find the case that you wish to resume by using the buttons and arrows at the bottom of the book. When you finally find the case you want to resume, click the green "resume" button on the case page. By pausing and resuming cases players can choose to pause an old case and work on a newer one instead that may be unlocked. Remember, you can only see the cases for the part of the city that you are currently in.

## Retired Cases

The developers remove and add cases from the Diary every now and then. The reason is unknown. Please see Retired Cases for a list of known removed cases.
