Gumshoe Detective Agency: The First Case changes
Your first case opens on October 9, 2025. Step into a 1990s computer and investigate the disappearance of Victoria Mason, a wealthy heiress tangled in corporate secrets, gossip, and a trail of strange clues. Snoop through in-world emails and websites, piece together evidence, and decide who you can actually trust.
What to expect: a warm, cozy mystery vibe with satisfying “aha!” moments rather than timers or jump scares. If you like Nancy Drew-style sleuthing, retro computers, and narrative puzzles you can sink into after work, this one’s for you.
Highlights
A faithful 90s desktop: dial-up era emails, message boards, office docs, floppy saves, and VHS-era flair.
Story-first puzzles: pattern spotting, logic, ciphers, and a tactile fingerprint-matching mini-game.
A grounded mystery: suspects with motives, corporate intrigue, and leads that really connect.
Play at your pace: no fail states, no timers, investigate, pin evidence, and follow hunches.
If you tried the demo, thank you! Today’s build adds new scenes, polish, and the full mystery. If you enjoy the game, leaving a review, sharing screenshots, and adding tags helps a ton.
See you on the case, let’s find Victoria!
