Description

Murder in a small town! Join a band of loyal friends seeking to uncover the real villain in the ghastly murder of the beloved Nurse Judy. This Homebrewed Cthulhu-esque board-game uses cooperative play on a 3d terrain map of a small New England town from the 1920's.

In this cooperative game, players move around the game board uncovering clues and revealing alibis for the members of the Town Council, all of whom are suspects of the murder. Work with the other players to deduce which Town Elders committed the murder, and reveal their hidden motive.

As players move around the board, they may draw cards from two decks, a Event deck, and a Town Deck. Event cards reflect general occurrences in the town, as well as the actions of the Villain as they attempt to hinder the investigation. The Town cards contain rumors and gossip that allows the players to discover who the real culprit and their secret motive through a process of elimination.
