Daily Suspect case #61: a manor murder scene, the first piece of evidence and cards for the suspects

Daily Suspect is a daily murder mystery for iPhone. Each morning brings one case, the same for everyone, with five suspects and a set of clues you reveal one at a time; accuse the killer using as few clues as possible, then share a spoiler-free result card.

About Daily Suspect

Each case in Daily Suspect opens with a short scene, a storm-sealed manor and a professor found dead, and five suspects, one of whom is lying. The first piece of evidence is already on the table. You can open any suspect's file to read their testimony and the inspector's notes: where they were, what weapon they could reach, whether they are left-handed, their motive and whether anyone can confirm their alibi.

When you are not yet sure, reveal another clue. Each clue narrows the field, but the fewer you use, the better your score. When you are ready, make your accusation; it is final. The game then shows who did it and how every clue points to them, and gives you a card for the group chat that shows how many clues you needed without naming the killer.

Everyone plays the same case each day. The cases are generated and checked by code before release, so each has exactly one killer and a chain of logic that always closes, with no dead ends or guesswork.

Daily Suspect is made by Summitview Apps and came out in July 2026. Today's case is always free, with no ads in it. The Detective's Archive, an auto-renewing subscription (monthly or yearly) or a lifetime purchase, unlocks every past case, and cosmetic desk themes are sold one by one.

Tips

  • Check every clue against all five files before revealing the next one.
  • Hard facts such as handedness, weapon access and location settle more than testimony does.
  • An alibi no one can confirm is not proof of guilt; wait until only one suspect fits every clue.
  • The accusation is final, so one more clue is cheaper than a wrong guess.
