Whisperwood Detective
An illustrated hidden-object and pair-deduction game. Search twelve seeded woodland cases, pair two pieces of matching evidence, preserve focus, and use detective tools judiciously.
The Sitting Room
Islington, 1893. You are the sceptical guest at a darkened parlour table, and you may not leave it — you may only turn your head, lean, hold the circle of hands or break it, and put a question. Mrs Silence Marrow raps, tilts the table, breathes cold across your ankles and sends a luminous trumpet up into the dark, while the room works hard to tell you where to look. Nearly all of it is conjuring, and the game is catching it — the thread, the knee under the leaf, the boots below the curtain. Six sittings, nineteen staged wonders, a verdict on each: name the method, or call it unexplained.

Wagon-Lit
A courier is dead in Compartment Four of a 1960s sleeper express, the doctor has already called it a fall, and you have until the frontier at dawn. The whole world is one carriage: a corridor of numbered doors opening into compartments where passengers lie, evade and revise. Everything you learn becomes a card, and the game is really played on the corkboard — drag one statement onto another until a contradiction lights up and cracks open a question you could not previously ask. Name them with the file behind it, or they walk at the border.

Saint Meridian Detective Club
An original, finite forensic-noir otome mystery built as an independent static deployment. The protagonist is a 32-year-old archival cognition doctoral researcher trying to preserve a disputed community archive without exposing a living witness. The two adult romance paths are Elias Darzi (37), a forensic artist whose confidence contours reveal stable memories, and Micah Okoye (35), an investigative journalist whose source chains reveal timing and provenance.
Ghostline Express
Night-train deduction aboard the sleeper service for the dead. Walk the swaying, lamplit carriages, interview ghost passengers, punch tickets with a deeply satisfying CHUNK, and deduce who aboard is still alive — before the terminus.
