Evaluation

HoloTrials: Case Covered launched on September 9, 2026 as a free-to-play adventure game. Since launch, VTAC Games has posted two hotfix patches (v1.0.1 on September 10 and v1.0.2 on September 11), addressing bug fixes, typos, and minor visual adjustments — typical post-launch maintenance activity. The developer has made no announcements about future content, DLC, or expansions, nor have they stated that the game is a complete, standalone product with no further updates planned. Because the game launched only 3 days ago, there simply isn't enough history to determine whether additional content will follow.

About this game

Class is in session at HoloHigh, but there's trouble brewing. The rebellious second-years, Myth, are constantly at odds with the strict first-year Student Council.

The rivalry hits a breaking point when the school pool is vandalized with graffiti mocking the Student Council President... and your friend, Gawr Gura, is the one caught holding the paint. Or is she?

It's up to you, as Amelia Watson, to investigate the scene, gather evidence, and defend Gura in a full-blown school trial!

Take control of Amelia Watson, HoloHigh's sharpest detective! As a member of the debate club, you can't stand by when your best friend, Gawr Gura, is framed for a crime she says she didn't commit. It's up to you to put your investigation skills to the test, gather the facts, and clear her name!

HoloHigh is your crime scene! Move through the busiest spots on campus in a sidescroller view to travel between iconic locations like the classrooms, the pool, and the student council room. When you find a hot spot, switch to a first-person view to examine specific areas for clues. Scour every scene and gather the hard evidence you'll need to win in court!


Explore the halls of HoloHigh and interview the cast of HoloEN’s Myth and Council talents, reimagined as students. Interrogate suspects, chat with witnesses, and get to the bottom of their alibis. Every character is brought to life with a unique, lineless art style and expressive, hand-crafted animations that capture their personalities.

NOT ON MY WATCH! This is where your case comes together. Step into the courtroom to hear witness testimonies and cross-examine claims. Dissect their statements, press them for details, and find the one contradiction that blows their story apart. When you find the lie, destroy it with your hard-won evidence and bring the truth to light!
