Trivia

 * It seems that Pacific Bay was primarily modeled after California (Los Angeles to be particular).
 * However, some of its districts may be more reminiscent of other US states (e.g. Bayou Bleu and Jazz Town are very similar to Louisiana; Rhine Canyon is an amalgamation of Arizona and Nevada whilst Paradise City resembles the latter).
 * After the player unlocks Pacific Bay, a new feature is added to their gameplay—"Travel to Another City". With it, the player can switch between Grimsborough and Pacific Bay anytime and as many times as they want. This feature was mainly added so that Pacific Bay players could travel back to Grimsborough in order to earn their remaining Gold Medals.
 * Unlike Grimsborough's map, the Pacific Bay map features specific hints near a case marker, which hints the player about the murder detail of a particular case. (Note that the player must zoom in the map to notice these specific hints)
 * For example, when you zoom in on the Case #2 marker, you can spot a car crash right beside it, which is intended to simulate the murder cause featured in that very case.
 * Similar to Grimsborough, each district in Pacific Bay features a different theme and/or focuses on a particular event/main character, as described in the following:
 * Ocean Shore features a beach-themed urban setting, and mainly deals with raving people and lawbreakers who have a tendency to participate in illicit activities.
 * Bayou Bleu is all about voodoo and magic. The fad, however, is discovered to be nothing but just a cover-up for a serial killer spree in which a voodoo mastermind turns out to have been manipulating the Bayou into thinking that voodoo magic is real.
 * Inner City deals with a violent community feud. It also focuses on Hannah Choi and her past ties with an anarchist group which tries to intensify the feud.
 * Jazz Town mainly focuses on Hurricane Yves—a storm which had recently hit the district, taking the lives of several innocents and causing many to become homeless—and Hurricane Zelda, an incoming storm. As the investigation goes on, there comes theories about the hurricanes being man-made storms, and stories about a serial killer named "The Puppeteer" surface up as well—and both turn out to be true. The district also focuses on the upcoming annual Jazz Town Carnival and the tragic past of Yann Toussaint.
 * White Peaks primarily focuses on Amy Young and her childhood. As the story continues, it is revealed how she has had a love interest in the past and has a brother who is now bound to a wheelchair. The district also revolves around the "Night Walker", a boogeyman who supposedly comes out of the forest to snatch people away.
 * Ivywood Hills mainly deals with an infamous cult that promises eternal life and endless fame for a fee, becoming more and more popular among celebrities as the storyline moves on. The district also revolves around Frank Knight (briefly) and Russell Crane, and later the upcoming annual Ivywood Film Awards.
 * Rhine Canyon focuses on UFO sightings and how the government manipulates information on alien life on earth. It also focuses on Andrea Marquez, whose life was ruined when it was manipulated by government and military officials, and alas, she had to live her life like it was a lie.
 * Innovation Valley focuses on how robots and artificially-created humans are the topics liable for the string of crimes ensuing aloft not to mention a high-tech conglomerate being the center of these anomalies. Ultimately, the player must quell these experiments, provided that the law permits them so, before it's too late.
 * Paradise City, implying on the Las Vegas premise, focuses on how organized thieves are planning on a heist on one of Pacific Bay's highly-respective casinoes.
 * Pacific Bay was released on 20 November 2014 on the iOS version of the game.
 * Death By Martini and later cases of Pacific Bay are currently unavailable for play on the mobile version of the game.
