Evaluation
Jenny LeClue - Detectivu launched on September 19, 2019 after five years of development. Following launch, Mografi released several post-launch updates: achievements and New Game+ mode on October 21, 2019; keyboard remapping on October 23, 2019; and Halloween costume sets on October 28, 2019, which the developer noted would "set the groundwork for future cosmetic costume customization and themed sets."
The most significant post-launch update arrived on July 24, 2020 — the "Spoken Secrets Edition" — a major overhaul adding full voice acting for the entire game, auto-play dialogue, and touch control improvements. This was the last substantive developer communication on record.
Since July 24, 2020, the developer has posted only sales and discount notices (18 no-signal posts), with no feature patches, major updates, or announcements of future content. There is no roadmap, no unreleased DLC on the store, and no developer statement indicating additional content is planned. The October 2019 comment about "future cosmetic costume customization" was not followed up on, and the Spoken Secrets Edition — released roughly 10 months after launch — appears to represent the final major development milestone.
The game launched as a self-contained story-driven adventure, and the developer has not communicated any plans to extend the narrative or ship further content. The last meaningful developer communication was on July 24, 2020.

About this game
Jenny LeClue is a thrilling story of mystery, adventure and growing up. Set in the sleepy town of Arthurton, the game is filled with memorable, complex characters and rendered in a unique aesthetic.
Embrace the choosiness and shape the metanarrative. You are not the only guiding hand shaping Jenny’s destiny, but your choices will help her unravel the tangled mystery and become the detective she was born to be.
Jenny gets more than she bargains for when her mother is accused of murder, and begins an unexpected journey to find the truth.
She soon discovers the idyllic town of Arthurton is not what it seems, and unseen forces will stop at nothing to keep Jenny from the truth. She will need all her skills of deduction to find the real killer and clear her mother’s name.
A pocket-sized heroine on a big quest for justice:
Jenny is a brilliant young detective, sharp eyed, intuitive and a ruthless pursuer of the truth. She is able to look around during dialogue scenes, observing the subject for visible clues that might reveal their guilt or innocence that would otherwise go undetected.
A beautiful handmade world, packed with secrets:
A sleek, gorgeous hand drawn world with vintage mid-20th century aesthetics and mystery squished into every corner. There’s so much to interact with, and players who poke and prod at every last thing are rewarded with insight, secrets, and humor.
A story within a story, where your choosiness matters:
Jenny LeClue weaves a rich metanarrative around a rich story exploring themes of family, loss, and identity. The "author" of Jenny's adventures, Arthur K Finklestein, acts as narrator and guide, but his presence also allows you to make choices that change the way Jenny's story is written. These choices may even affect Finklestein’s own story.
A Diverse Cast Of Characters & Locations:
Explore Arthurton’s expansive world including the abandoned mines, the forgotten graveyard, Lake Noware, and Gumboldt's Library. Jenny will meet an array of intriguing and suspicious characters who could help or hinder her on her quest for the truth.
Developer's Note:
This is game one of a planned two game story arc. Jenny LeClue - Detectivu is a complete game experience, like a season of a TV show. Yes, there is a cliffhanger at the end, as it is a mystery story, but there are also conclusions to be made. In addition, we will take the player choices into account and they will influence the way we as the developer create the 2nd game. We hope you enjoy! =]
