About this archive
What this is
Fifteen self-contained detective cases for one player. The first case in every drawer is free; a Pro pass opens the rest. No account, no download — everything runs in your browser. Written for adults and older teens who like a fair mystery.
How it works
Read the statements, search the rooms, name the killer. The 3D Locked Rooms take about twenty minutes; the longer files run from an hour to an evening. Your progress is saved in this browser.
Why tonight
Every case has exactly one solution, and the clues give you exactly enough. Nobody is coming to help. That is the appeal.
