Detective Butler: Maiden Voyage Murder

1. Walkthrough overview

From Goldbar Games comes Detective Butler: Maiden Voyage Murder, an interactive graphic novel murder mystery story. With more achievements than most interactive novels, this game can be relatively tricky to complete, but there's hope on the horizon.

Read on to find out how to gain 100% achievement on this game and add it to your completed games list.

2. General hints and tips

There are two ways you can complete this game. Either with two playthroughs, going through it once and reading the story, or going through it quickly (which unlocks another achievement). By speeding through the game, you can complete this easily with one play through in just under an hour, however, if you wish to read the story and try and figure it all out yourself, you will have to play through it twice.

3. Story walkthrough

There are 14 achievements in this game, 10 of which are story related.

First of all, this walkthrough states that you need two playthroughs but you can do it in one; it just depends on if you want to read the whole story or not.

If you don’t want to read the story, just hit control and watch the game fly past. If you do want to read the story, go through it at your own pace. The following story-related achievements will unlock:

Now, if you were skipping through the game, you should have unlocked Skipper

This is unlocked for reading through the whole story in under an hour in a single playthrough. Holding down control, this took me about thirty minutes.

If you read through the story, go back into it from chapter one and hold control down to skip everything.

Skipper

Read the game from start to finish in under one hour.

Skipper

Next on the list is Journal Entry. Go back to the main menu, and go to “Journal” underneath “New Game” and “Load Game”. The achievement will pop.

Journal Entry

Open your journal for the first time.

Journal Entry

There’s another achievement in the journal to be achieved, called Playing Along. This requires you to view every single entry in the journal. You can either read through each one, or just click through them quickly.

Playing Along

View every suspect, map, and clue in the journal.

Playing Along

The last achievement this game has to offer is Curious Mind which is seeing every bit of bonus content – note, you do have to have completed the game at least once to view it. Ensure you go through each bit – and when you get to artwork, ensure you click through each different section within it, or the achievement will not pop.

Curious Mind

View every piece of bonus content.

Curious Mind

And that’s 100% completion!
