Case Files · A Two-Detective Investigation

Two of you.
One truth.

Not a dinner party. A case. The evidence comes to your phones in stages, the operations board builds on your television, and the story changes under your feet. Solve it together, before it goes cold.

A different game entirely

This is not the party game

Our party games gather a room around a table. Case Files are something else: intimate, procedural, more like actually being a detective. Made for two. A couch. A date night. A pair who want to be inside the investigation, not hosting it.

How a case runs

Evidence. Theory. Correction.

Five stages. Each one unlocks only when the two of you agree on an answer, so you cannot skip ahead and you have to actually talk it through.

1

It arrives

Scene photographs, the victim's file, the first reports. The shape of the night before anyone knew it had gone wrong.

2

You commit

Log your theory on the board: cause of death, prime suspect, motive. Any answer is accepted. You may be confidently wrong.

3

It turns

Forensics land. A statement cracks. The board flags an answer amber. Not "wrong" — "you may want to revisit this."

4

You decide

Correct your course, or commit too early and miss the signal. Three from three is a clean solve. The path you took is the story.

The files

Five cases. Each one lies to you differently.

Five self-contained investigations, each built around a single clean misdirection. All five are open now.

The case file is open.

Pour two drinks. Open the board on the television. Send your partner the link. See if the two of you can out-think the evidence.
