List of attributes[ | ]
| Name | Description | Effects |

| Professionalism | Taking actions and making choices as a detective would | • Low professionalism gives you options that are not entirely legal, for example breaking and entering. • High professionalism makes others respect you. |
| Investigation | Searching for clues, trying to solve the case | • High investigative skills let you notice more hotspots and items to interact with. |
| Neurosis | Repeating the same action more than once, speaking to characters after conversations have finished, randomly interacting with objects | • If Detective Itō becomes highly neurotic her sanity decreases faster and is harder to regain. |
