So we went back to work.

Over the past months, we completely rethought the beginning of the game and created a brand-new demo that now serves as the actual prologue of The Granny Detective Society full game.

This new version is designed to be: ✨ softer ✨ clearer ✨ more welcoming

You’ll spend time getting to know Madeleine, observing her little neighborhood, discovering the atmosphere of the game, and slowly stepping into the mystery at a gentler pace

And importantly: 👉 This is NOT the same demo as the one released in January.

So if you already played the previous version, we’d genuinely love for you to give this new one a try 💛

Your feedback over the past months helped shape this new beginning more than you know. Thank you for your patience, your kindness, and for helping us make this strange little detective game better, step by step.

If you enjoy the demo, wishlisting the game truly helps our small studio a lot.

With love (and investigative biscuits),

Vidu & Jaximus Team Empreintes 💛
