No Case Should Remain Unsolved is a short text-based detective game from Somi, set in South Korea. A young officer asks retired inspector Jeon Gyeong to revisit the one case she never closed: a little girl, Seowon, who vanished from a playground in 2012. You rebuild the case from scrambled memory fragments, sorting lines of dialogue by speaker and order. It suits solo players who like The Roottrees are Dead or Golden Idol and want an emotional story they can finish in one sitting.
Players rate it Overwhelmingly Positive, with about 98 percent of nearly 1,900 reviews in favour. Reviewers praise the jigsaw-like conversation sorting, keywords that unlock new conversations and passcodes, and twists that keep them guessing until the end. Many say the ending made them cry, and the soundtrack by Seongyi Yi gets frequent mention. A hidden second truth rewards players who keep digging.
The caveats are a confusing start, since the game explains little about its interface, and a short length of two to three hours. A few found sorting fragments fiddly at times. It is a strong pick for story-driven deduction fans; skip it if you dislike heavy reading.
Pros
Sort scrambled dialogue by speaker and order to rebuild memories
Twist-heavy missing-child story many players found moving
Hidden second ending and a soundtrack by Seongyi Yi
Cons
Interface is barely explained, so the start is confusing
"I remember how surprised I was when I first saw this case. Everyone involved was lying, for one reason or another."
#No_Case_Should_Remain_Unsolved is a detective game where players uncover and piece together memory fragments to solve a long-forgotten case. Follow former police detective Jeon Gyeong as she acquires clues and testimony relating to the case of a missing girl.

February 5, 2012. A little girl named Seowon is reported missing from a playground. Police launch an investigation and question witnesses and suspects, but Seowon's case is never solved. Twelve years after Senior Inspector Jeon Gyeong's retirement, she is visited by a young police officer: a woman who pleads with her to reexamine Seowon's case. But with each uncovered memory, only one thing becomes clear: everyone in Seowon's vicinity was lying.
