Characters of the Mystery
 
All in all there are nine characters in the mystery "In the Shadow of the Duke" and each character may be the murderer. Players of the mystery get a detective task to solve. You have to run an investigation on how and why a murder was committed, and who’s the murderer.
 
The mystery begins on October 10th, when all the characters of the mystery are introduced, and it goes on until November 27th, when the solution of the mystery and the name of the murderer are revealed.
 
The player is allowed to make only one guess per week. The maximum amount of guesses during all the time of the mystery is seven.
