No downloads. Just a room code.

Like a game night that happens to involve a homicide. One person buys the case; everyone else joins from whatever device is already in their hand.

1

Buy a case

One purchase covers the whole table. You get a room code the moment you pay.

2

Text the code

Friends open a browser and type it in. No app, no account, no install — on any phone, tablet or laptop.

3

Investigate

Draw evidence privately. Interview witnesses, run forensics, pull surveillance. Decide what to share.

4

Make the arrest

Name the murderer and win instantly. Get it wrong and you're suspended for two turns.

A mystery that fights back

Every case is solvable by reasoning alone. You may be misled — you will never be cheated.

Six endings per case

The murderer is not the same person every time you play. Same suspects, same city, a different truth underneath — so a case is worth running again with a different group.

Nobody sees everything

Evidence is dealt privately, and no detective can hold enough of it to solve alone. You have to decide who to trust and what to reveal.

Fair by design

Every red herring is factually true with an innocent explanation. The game never lies to you about verified evidence — the misdirection is in your interpretation.

Verified

DNA, lab work, authenticated video. Build on it.

Credible

Probably accurate. Not proven.

Unverified

Rumour, anonymous tips, conflicting testimony.

The Hawk

Symbolic. Points toward a question, never an answer.

Choose your investigation

Each case adapts one of Ted Huntington's Detective Lauren Gabriel novels into a playable homicide investigation.
