Judgment Side Case Guide

Aside from main story missions and mini-games, Judgment has a ton of other side content including Cases. This Judgment Side Case Guide will list all of the different Side Cases we’ve discovered in the game including information on where they start and any rewards you receive.

Side Cases are optional missions that you can complete for extra insight into the world, more friend opportunities and some great rewards. It’s also a really good source of Yen, if you find yourself running out. Most of the Side Cases are optional, bar a few, and can be found after reaching certain parts of the story and in some cases, reaching a certain level of City Reputation.

There are four main methods of discovering Side Cases. You will find them at Yagami’s Detective Agency, the Genda Law Office, and Bar Tender. Finally, some of the Side Cases are scattered throughout the city itself.

After you meet the client you will be tasked with solving a riddle. It may be different each play through but below was my puzzle:

The Mystery Writers Stratagem

Working out this puzzle is simple, but you may need a pen and paper if your puzzle is different.

CBDA – 4
CCCA – 1
BACC – 3
AABC – 4

The Mystery Writers Gambit

Must have completed The Mystery Writers Stratagem. This is another mini puzzle to solve to get the combination to the safe. It’s simple once you figure it out. It’s the number of digits in the multiplication puzzles given.

111×3 = 3
12×99 = 4
333×0 = 1
5×6 = 2

The Twisted Trio: Ass Catchem

The Mystery Writers Master Stroke

Must have completed The Mystery Writers Gambit. I got this one during Chapter 6 with 30 Reputation. This is another puzzle game for the publishing company.

5+3=8
7-10 =9
3+11=2
0-7=5

Everything adds up until you hit the 1+11=0 sum. That’s because it’s working on a 12 number system, a clock. Using a 12 hour clock, complete the sums. Answer is 8925.
