Medals

Medals are given to the player after they do a certain task. Sometimes, these are requirements so you can go to the next case or get a police dog. It's your choice if you want to get the three medals (bronze, silver and gold) or only two medals (bronze and silver) if you can't have a time to earn the gold medal.

How to Get Medals
Medals are earned when you incarcerate killers, complete all legs of the Additional Investigation, and earn 5 stars in all crime scenes (including the bonus scene). The following items are conditions to obtain a specific medal as described herein:


 * A Bronze Medal can be earned after arresting the killer in a case or completing Chapter 3. All cases (with the exception of the first one will require an Additional Investigation following the killer's arrest.


 * A Silver Medal can be earned after completing the Additional Investigation in a case. Both Bronze and Silver Medals are required to unlock the next case.


 * A Gold Medal can be earned after getting five stars on every crime/bonus scenes in a case. You need 2, 12, 22, 32 and 42 gold medals respectively in order to unlock the dog shop in each district (Industrial Area, Financial Center, Historical Center, University and Maple Heights)

Tips on How to Get Gold Medal
In order to have a convenient or faster way to solve a case or earn a gold medal:


 * First, to finish a case, you need 36 stars for the majority of the time. In Case #1 you only need to arrest the killer.  In Case #2 you need 20 stars (subject to change) to proceed to the next case.


 * Second, if you are having difficulties in earning a star choose the scene that is the least the score that you need in order to earn a star. Like, in the nine scenes, the 'Spot the Differences' scene is the least star so you will investigate that scene.


 * Third, in order to have a golden star you have two choices; while your on Chapter 1 you can earn up to 25 stars; on Chapter 2 you can earn up to 35 or 40 stars in total; and on Chapter 3 you can earn up to 45 stars in total. (This applies to Case #3 and onwards) For Case #1 and 2, you just need 15 and 30 stars respectively.


 * Fourth, it's you're choice on how to spend your stars you can examine clues, interrogate suspects, arrest the killer, proceed to the next chapters and Additional Investigation and you can use it to buy snacks like orange juice for 1 star, potato chips for 2 stars and burger for 3 stars. But the most important is to arrest the killer, proceed to your next progress and go to the next case. It is recommended that you use all stars to buy extra burgers since they're worth 120 Energy Points.
