Master Detective Archives: Rain Code is the latest game from Danganronpa creator Kazutaka Kodaka and Too Kyo Games, and it will put your mind to the test in much the same way. As in Danganronpa, collecting evidence in Rain Code is relatively linear and straightforward, so you probably won’t need much help there,  but things get tricky once you delve into the game’s signature Mystery Labyrinths.

　　Much like Danganronpa’s elaborate class trials, Mystery Labyrinths task you with presenting evidence and countering contradictions in a series of minigames, with a life bar being depleting as you make mistakes. You’ll also be awarded a ranking at the end of each labyrinth, up to SS, if provide all the right answers without making any mistakes or losing too much health. That’s no easy task, unless you follow along with our handy guide, which provides all the Mystery Labyrinth answers for Master Detective Archives: Rain Code Chapter 0 -- Massacre on the Amaterasu Express. Scroll on for your cheat sheet…

　　Warning: There’s really no way to a guide for Master Detective Archives: Rain Code without SPOILERS, so proceed with caution.

Mystery Labyrinth Basics

　　Reasoning Deathmatches – These are the main challenge you’ll face in Mystery Labyrinths. An opponent will hurl various statements at you, which you’ll literally have to avoid by dodging left, right, jumping, or ducking. When you see a bright red statement, you may be able to counter it by equipping the correct piece of evidence (or “Solution Key”) and slashing it with your sword. Usually if you correctly counter 1 or 2 statements, you’ll defeat your Reasoning Deathmatch opponent and can move on.

　　Shinigami Puzzles – Here you simply have to select letters rotating around Shinigami’s barrel in order to spell out a key phrase.

　　God Shinigami Rush – A simple action-based minigame. Shinigami will have to deflect iron balls, break through walls, and leap over obstacles in order to finally break down the culprit’s defenses. You’ll also have to answer a few questions by choosing the correct Solution Key.

　　Deduction Denouement – In this final part of the Mystery Labyrinth, you have to place key pieces of evidence in chronological order in the pages of a manga-style comic book in order to accurately recreate the events of the case.
