The Crane Files: A Detective Mystery

November 2026AdventureCasualIndieWindowsmacOS

Ten murders. Ten scenes. One paper crane left at every one. Examine each 3D crime scene, question the suspects, collect the words that matter, then fill in exactly what happened. No hand-holding, no guessing your way out: only deduction.

Someone is leaving paper cranes at crime scenes.

A businessman dead behind a locked door. A chef struck down after the last service. A professor poisoned on the overnight train. Each case looks ordinary. Each one has a paper crane hidden somewhere in the scene.

How it plays

  • Examine every object and body in a hand-built 3D scene. Rotate, zoom, look closer.
  • Question the suspects. Everyone has a story, and most of them are lying about something.
  • Collect words from clues and statements: names, times, weapons, motives.
  • Fill in the solution by placing the right words into the blanks. Get one or two wrong and you'll know you're close, but not which ones.

Ten cases, each with a new twist

Two-room timelines. Anonymous passengers you must identify by name. Parties where everyone is lying. Before-and-after scenes to compare. Two crimes with two culprits. A crowd of eight suspects. Two killers working together. And a final case that ties every file together.
