About This Event
From acclaimed crime novelist and veteran game writer Antony Johnston, this immersive locked-room mystery challenges you to put your detective skills to the ultimate test. In this interactive crime novel, step into the shoes of a detective and investigate the most mysterious crime of your career. There’s been a murder at Elysium, a wellness retreat set in an English country manor. You arrive to find the body of a local businessman on the lawn, with a rose placed in his mouth. It appears he was stabbed with a gardening fork and fell to his death from the balcony above. But that balcony can only be accessed through a locked door, the key is missing, and everyone in Elysium is now a suspect… Gather the evidence and examine the clues. Choose who to interview next, and who to accuse as your prime suspect. But remember that every decision you make has consequences, and some of them will prove fatal… Do you have what it takes? Can YOU solve the murder?
