Seller's description

Do you want to solve a cold case from the comfort of your own home?

FOXBOX Detectives brings you this gripping experience where you'll sieve through police transcripts, witness statements, recovered text messages and emails. You will also need to access an online evidence database to review CCTV footage, listen to recordings of police radio surveillance as well as many other items to find the answers! Get ready to immerse yourselves in this gripping cold case. Full of twists, turns, lies and drama; maybe you can find the answers many others have failed to see. There is much to look through, however, don't feel you are limited to the contents of the documents provided. You may use other objects around you to help solve this case, such as a smartphone or the internet. Anything that may lead to an arrest.

THE STORY...

The mystery of who killed Dylan Jones has detectives scratching their heads so much that police have had to put it aside as they just can't find answers.
Alcoholic Reggie Brown needs help. Being suspended from all police duties is just the latest drama in his sinking life. He thinks if he can solve this case, he might get his job back on the force and finally get his life back on track. You agree to meet with him in a non-work-related fashion, but he insists on talking you into helping him solve the case. You are not interested; you won't help him and make it very clear that he shouldn't be doing this whilst on suspension. But days later a brown envelope appears in your mail and it’s from Reggie. You open it and can't believe your own eyes...

Things to know-
• The user must have access to a PC/laptop or Smartphone (we recommend using a PC or laptop for a better viewing experience)
• There are no expiry dates on the game codes and logins. You can solve the case whenever you are ready.
• We recommend the crime case is solved with 2-4 people. (However, it can be done with 1 person if you are a determined detective and want to challenge yourself!)
• Approximate duration 1-2 hours. No time pressure.
• One-time experience
• Suitable for 14+
• Clues are included online to help you if you get stuck.

Love it Perfect gift Fast delivery Great quality Helpful seller Looks great Well packaged

“Always love buying from this seller, never disappoints with the quality of the items and variety of evidence/interviews to look through as well as delivery times! Personally myself and my partner enjoyed the Hertfordshire case more but still really enjoyed this case! We suspected everyone until the very end so watching it all piece together was so cool! Would definitely recommend for anyone into true crime/murder cases or escape rooms as it has the same elements of puzzle solving and details”
