Stripped of her cybernetic implants, Kalia now uses her skills to help the underprivileged in a merciless world where advanced technology and social inequality define the landscape. Androids almost indistinguishable from humans and cybernetic implants are the norm, while artificial intelligence permeates daily life and Cyberspace becomes as real as the physical world. The city is divided by a gigantic translucent Dome, housing the BelCor elite in a private utopia, brutally contrasting with the reality of violence and the struggle for influence on the streets. In this cyberpunk setting, you'll use the latest technological innovations to unravel complex crimes. Your trusty Cyber-Raven can analyze evidence and scour the web for information on suspects. Throughout the scenarios, you may acquire new cybernetic implants that will boost your abilities: super-senses to find clues, a tomograph to scan people, or even a zapper to disable electronics. But be careful, technology isn't always on your side! Is the character you're talking to human or android? Who hides behind the avatars you meet in Cyberspace? The struggle between criminals and detectives reaches a new level in this dystopian future. Part of the *Chronicles of Crime – The Millennium* series, this game offers a unique experience with the same innovative mechanics of the series, but with a completely new and refreshing universe, narratively connecting with the other titles in the line. ## FAQ ### How many players can participate in Chronicles of Crime: 2400?

It's an essential part of the experience! ### What is the main difference of this game compared to other deduction games?
