A 1940s noir case file for players who think they've seen everything.
Los Angeles, the 1940s. A fake charity, a real murder, and a cryptic letter on Chief Inspector Harrington's desk. You and your partner Peggy follow the paper trail through the hardest game Escape Room Geeks makes, rated 5 out of 5 for difficulty on purpose. Expect two hours or more of interrogating documents, cross-referencing clues, and arguing about who did it.
Download the case file after checkout and print its 24 pages in color.
No hiding or taping required: lay out the evidence and you're ready.
Work the case solo or with up to three fellow sleuths.
Decode the letter, connect the evidence, and name the killer before the credits roll.

Your perfect at home date night We played with my wife Silver Screen Sleuths and loved every second of it. Downloading the game was all I needed to do and we could solve this after putting our kids to bed. We loved the comic style and all the puzzles are so clever. The story makes sense from beginning to the end. I hope to play more like this in the future

Amazing! My kids are obsessed with Escape Rooms but they're so expensive. For Halloween I wanted to find one we could do at home. This was impressive! The boys (10+13yo) loved it. The app made such a difference, I think. Hopefully you can add more games to the app.

This is the most amazing find! My kids (13yo,9yo) are obsessed with Escape Rooms but they're too expensive. For Halloween I was looking for an at-home DIY one, not at all expecting to find this gem. It's really the app for me, but the quality of the challenges and extras make this amazing. I think they're going to love it. I've done a quick review myself and am quite impressed.
