Finding certain items unlocks later levels, while hidden clues and changing objects give each investigation a different arrangement. The game is single-player and supports Family Sharing. It is listed for Windows and macOS, with a Steam release for Windows. Its genres include puzzle, adventure, hidden-object, and casual games. Players explore illustrated scenes for concealed items as they work through the case. The focus is on searching locations and piecing together evidence rather than multiplayer competition.
