- Is Red Herring free?
- Yes. One full case every day, free forever. Red Herring Pro adds the back catalogue, hard mode and replays.
- Do I need an account?
- No. You can play as a guest straight away. Creating an account keeps your streak safe across devices.
- How many questions do I get?
- Fifteen per case. Hard Mode, for Pro members, cuts that to twelve and makes suspects far less forthcoming.
- Do the suspects really understand what I type?
- Yes — they're AI characters with a fixed set of facts about that night. They can't invent evidence, but they can dodge, deflect and lie.
- Is every case actually solvable?
- Every case has one culprit and one motive, and the lie can always be caught by comparing at least two other suspects' answers.
- Will sharing my result spoil the case?
- Never. Share cards show the episode number, your streak and how you placed — never the killer or the motive.
- When does a new episode drop?
- Midnight, in your own time zone. Everyone plays the same case on the same calendar day.
