What is The Detective Reaper Invites?

This single-player, 2D deduction roguelite casts you as a detective reaper tasked with identifying and executing murderers. You spend money on cards to collect testimony, applying the rule that culprits lie and innocent suspects tell the truth. Cases are randomly generated on a game board, and failure ends the run.
