Excellent game! It was our first time solving a crime mystery, and we really enjoyed it – combination of digital and analog materials made it really fun. We would love to have more games in English!
We enjoyed the game very much.
Very fun, enormous level of detail, thank you!
Excellent game we played with our family of five. Clues were varied (online / offline) and the story was believable. It took us about 1:45hrs to solve. Highly recommended!

Wir konnten alle Fragen am Ende problemlos lösen. Jedoch bestand die letzte Stunde unseres Spiels daraus alle Dokumente wieder und wieder zu prüfen, weil wir uns sicher waren, dass wir etwas übersehen haben mussten, da einige Punkte über gewisse Personen und deren Beziehungen zu einander nur durch Annahmen gefüllt werden könnten ohne dass es konkrete Hinweise dafür gab.
