In the manual there is not a single example showing the core game system mechanics.
It says you need to roll 3d6 but there isn't even one example of this specific roll happening let alone being possible in the entire manual, quite unbelievable if you ask me, anyway, I had to resort to reddit to understand at least the basics.
On top of that the manual lists three "oracle modes" being: narrator, actor and prophet, but then again, not showing how to select these modes (that are, by the way, not mentioned anywhere else in the manual).
And finally, even the Mystery Flow patch (most important aspect in a detective game!) is unclear: if a mystery requires two or more steps to be solved I must convince myself that my first theory is incorrect in order to justify continuing the investigation?
WTF is that? Will my Detective always come up with an incorrect theory first?
I really like the the setting of No angels live here, but the manual is horrible.
