Description
About This Game
In the house of one of the members of the London financiers, a family celebration is approaching - Christmas, traditionally celebrated with great splendour. On this occasion, his daughter with her husband, cousins and friends appear at the estate. Unfortunately, where there are young people and huge money, there are plenty of emotions and feelings. Hazel Luanton, a longtime family friend, has died under mysterious circumstances. Why? What was the killer's motive? And finally, who did it? Will anyone else die?
Become a detective, immerse yourself in the world of secrets and solve the mystery.
Ask the residents of the house questions - every detail can be substantial! Sometimes people lie, remember that - in your notebook, you can mark whether you think the information provided is true. Further developments will depend on this.
While collecting information from the residents, you will come across traces leading to specific places - search them to find more facts and items. They can provide important clues. Sometimes it is enough to examine an object to obtain further information. Sometimes, however, you'll have to use an item on another to get to its secret. Remember that the detective follows even the strangest tips.
In addition to the secrets of the household and traces and objects hidden in various places, you will encounter some unexpected logical puzzles - the murder mystery is not the only one in this house.
Recall (or discover) how games used to be played - using the joystick (in its modern version, gamepad) or keyboard. There are dozens of lines of text to read like in old times. It is not enough to click on every suspicious element of the screen. Even more - you can put the mouse aside!
