Detective Charlie*
Strange events occur on Mysterville Island, and Charlie Holmes needs your help to solve the case! Interrogate witnesses, analyze evidence, and return to the train station in time for tea.
Players roll dice to move Detective Charlie and gather clues, working together to identify the culprit from a list of suspects. Once you think you've found the answer, check the envelope to see if you're correct; if not, you'll do better next time!
