One detective. No help coming.

Every case file is packed with 44+ pieces of evidence — handwritten letters, autopsy reports, crime scene photos, suspect files, maps and newspaper clippings — plus online evidence to dig through: phone records, police inboxes and more. It arrives ready to spread across the table.

No rules to learn, no game board. Open the case file, spread out the evidence and start investigating — cross-reference statements, catch the lies, and work out motive, means and opportunity. When you're sure, accuse your suspect and find out if you were right. Setup takes about a minute.

Dispatched from our Chester HQ the same working day when you order before 3:30pm, then Royal Mail Tracked 48 — most orders arrive within 2 days. Free shipping on orders over £25.

A proper challenge, not an impossible one — most detectives crack the case in 2–3 hours. And if you hit a wall, hints take you from a gentle nudge to a bigger clue, so you'll never be left stuck.

Every case includes an online hints system if you need a nudge, and you can always Whatsapp the Detective for more help. And if a case ever falls flat for you, our 60-day money-back guarantee has you covered - no interrogation required.
