You're a newly promoted Detective Inspector. A body comes in and the clock starts. You have days, not weeks.
The Commissioner wants an arrest that looks good. The papers have already picked a suspect. The public wants someone to pay, and isn't fussy about who.
You want the truth. Holding on to it is the whole game.
Choose which leads to follow. Every lead costs days you don't have. Build the case, keep the brass, the press and the public from turning on you, then decide who to charge.
Then live with it.
SIX CONNECTED CASES
A developer who falls from his own tower. A landlord found in his own cellar. A market trader, a tenant organiser, an archaeologist and a podcast host. Six murders, one season, and a thread running under all of them for anyone paying attention.
NO SCORE
You can convict an innocent person because it was easy and everyone wanted it. The game won't stop you, and there's no game-over screen. It just remembers. Every detective you get sacked joins the ones before them.
MADE WITH CARE
Hand-stamped case files. Sound built from rooms, not music. Choices that genuinely change the ending. No ads.
Solve murders. Live with it.
