Description Edit | History

A murder mystery style game. You must collect clues from different rooms, but you have only a limited time before the train reaches the station. If you don't catch the culprit before then, the killer will escape. It is unique in that the solution is NEVER 100% sure. You must make some logical assumptions to get the killer. The killer is different each time based on a number of prewritten murder cases (extras are sold separately).

3 The Black Sheep (encrypted)
This is an encrypted version of my mystery entitled "The Black Sheep". All the text on all the clues, super clues and the solution are highlighted in black. Simply change the highlighted areas to white (or the text to white) and you can find out what people have to say and who done it.

5 The Black Sheep ***SPOILER***
This is a plain text version of the encrypted mystery entitled "The Black Sheep". Everything is in plain text right down to "it was the butler what done it."
