Designed to be challenging

This isn't your typical easy-peasy detective game — there are more documents (35+) and trickier puzzles. The total runtime is about 5-15 hours, depending on the number of players and their experience.

For 1+ players

Your access link and downloadable files are easy to share with others in your party. Maybe not with kids, though: the case touches on mature themes like violence and death. While there's nothing graphic, it may not be suitable for young children.
