Plot
The Halloween Party
Twilight of the Golden Witch opens with a Halloween Party attended by the entire Ushiromiya family and their servants. Most notably, a 6 year-old Ange is present for the party and plays the part of the protagonist for the duration of the party. Ange finds the entire part to be incredibly off due to how strange her family seems to be acting. Prior to the party, Ange is under the belief that Kinzo is a terrifying individual and that the Ushiromiya family is largely bitter to one another. However, during the Halloween party, Kinzo greets everyone quite happily and the entire family gets along very well. The family even performs a gift exchange, something Ange had never seen the family do before. The party is revealed to be taking place in Purgatorio rather than on any Game Board and several characters speak on Ange's future.

The final game is a showdown between Bernkastel and the husband-wife team of Battler Ushiromiya and Beatrice with Lambdadelta mediating.

- Characters who are not culprits only speak the truth.
- Characters who are not culprits may not cooperate with a culprit.
- A culprit must carry out all murders directly, by their own hands.
- A culprit must not die.
- A culprit must be among the characters appearing in the story.
- Purple statements are as absolute as red truths. However, the culprit alone may lie with purple statements.
- The Reader will tell no lies. In other words, outside of spoken statements, there are no lies in the narration.
- [Lambdadelta] guarantee[s] that it is possible to pinpoint the culprit with this information.
Trivia
