With the announcement of the public testing time for Detective Mysterious Chronicles, players have become very curious about this game, especially regarding whether Detective Mysterious Chronicles is a standalone game. This is because during the gameplay, players only need network support when logging in, and it seems that all subsequent activities, such as finding clues or engaging in various interesting gameplay elements, can be done offline.

The game mode is not purely standalone. Not only does it require an internet connection at the start to update the game data package, meaning that players will need to use network data transmission when logging into the game, but also, during the later stages of the game, players will need a network for PvP real-time battles and some team-based competitive scenarios. Therefore, the game is not a standalone game.

The game is set in the Tang Dynasty, where the player's role is that of an Astronomer, tasked with investigating bizarre cases occurring in various towns across the Tang Dynasty. The first case, "Rainy Night Meltdown," showcases the richness of the game's plot. During the process of searching for clues, players can unlock various secret techniques, such as "Disguise Art" and "Lightness Skill." In the subsequent investigation, players can randomly unlock other wondrous skills, which, when upgraded, enhance the player's ability to solve cases.

The game itself offers a high degree of freedom in exploration, with a very vast map. Players can freely walk according to their chosen path, which may lead to opportunities to open treasure chests or encounters with minor monsters that hinder puzzle-solving. The combat mode in the game is automatic; players just need to select the characters they want to deploy. For the battle lineup, players can choose from different professions, each offering a variety of playstyles. Especially in the later stages of the game, based on the profession's school, players can change their job to unlock more advanced skills. If you wish to challenge bosses, you can do so through the tower-climbing gameplay. To better handle boss fights, adjustments to the lineup are necessary, choosing professions with strong output skills plus a recovery profession would be a safer choice.

This concludes the analysis of whether Detective Mysterious Chronicles is a standalone game. While the game does give players a sense of standalone gameplay during its progress, considering the many gameplay elements, including PvP battles and drinking contests, these are indeed real-time battles that require network support.
