Publisher: Pixonic LLC.

Genre/themes: Victorian, Indie, Murder Mystery, Narrative, Hidden Object, Timed, Crime-Solving.
Current iTunes rating: 4 out of 5 from 900 player reviews. Read our post for more details of the mobile version.
Description: This original game is based on classical English detective rules. Every day someone dies and you need to figure out who is the killer. Everybody has a common mystery story of the past. Everybody could have a motive to do this. And you have only seven days to stop the murderer. It is not a generic adventure game — there is no happy end in this scenario, you can either win or lose the game (if everybody dies). Speak with characters, investigate crime scenes, guess who lies, look at your dreams to find clues and try to arrest the killer before it’s too late. [Source: whoisthekiller.net]
