Overall the experience was great fun. We solved it in the end. Although, there were quite a few typos , missing 2 crime scene photos that were listed in online portion of the game and 3 incorrect dates, one quoting Jude’s date of birth as 10 years after his mother’s death and the tabloid article about Edward’s funeral dated 10years before his death. And finally, the pathology report mentioned Edward’s death on the 4 th and not the 2nd as outline in the scenario description .

FAQs
Please read our FAQs page to find out more.
How do I receive my cold case file?
The moment you buy, you're given secure access to your case portal — sign in and reopen the dossier to examine, download or print every file. Choose a physical edition and a beautifully made boxed kit is also posted to your door.
How many people can play?
Play solo, or team up with a partner. Cold cases are a one or two-player investigation — ideal for date night or a quiet night in.
How long does it take?
Most cases take around 1–2 hours, and there's no timer. Work through the evidence at your own pace and pick it back up whenever you like.
Do I need to print anything?
Not at all — you can examine everything in your case portal on any device. Print the files if you'd like to spread the evidence out, or work from the posted kit with a physical edition.
What if I get stuck?
Every case includes a built-in hint system and a full solution, so you're never truly stuck.
Can I play it more than once?
Each case has one solution, so the reveal lands hardest the first time. Plenty of detectives go back through the evidence afterwards to catch what they walked straight past — and when you're ready for a fresh investigation, there's a whole library of cases waiting.
What device should I use?
For digital editions, a computer or tablet is best for examining the documents and photographs in detail. Physical editions come ready to spread out on the table.
What age is it suitable for?
Most cases suit teens and adults. A few carry mature true-crime themes — the product description flags anything stronger.
