Beginner guide: work a case without guessing
Start a Dupery case, separate observed statements from assumptions, choose useful investigations and avoid unsupported arrests.
The field guide
Dupery guides
Start with the question in front of you. Each guide turns a clue or mechanic into a usable next step.
02
Truth, lies and taint: can you trust a clue?
Understand unreliable information in Dupery, why good roles can lie, and how to test a clue before using it as a constraint.
03
Alignment, categories and disguises explained
Separate good or evil alignment from Innocent, Meddler, Underling and Traitor categories, and understand what a disguise changes.
04
How to use a Dupery Mathematician sum
Work through the four address sets that sum to seven, narrow them with independent clues, and interpret zero or unique conditional results.
05
Arrests and reputation: when to commit
Decide whether an arrest is supported, account for Critic and other modifiers, and avoid treating a clue’s evil label as a verdict.
06
Board notes: keep evidence separate from guesses
Use pins, strings and a simple note legend to track statements, assumptions, changing information and address-sum constraints.
07
Campaigns, tiers and difficulty: the progression loop
Understand Dupery’s three region campaigns, general confrontations, tier unlocks and final Syndicate run without using obsolete Demo case-selection advice.
08
Demo vs full game: roles, modes and version advice
Compare the published Demo scope with the full-game plan, distinguish playable roles from localization entries, and check the launch Demo notice.
