Christof
Owner
I'm Christof. I love murder mysteries: parties with friends, organised events and print-at-home games. Escape rooms too. After Hours Casefiles grew from wanting to write my own mysteries and bring some of that puzzle-solving to the kitchen table.

Frequently asked questions
Is this a physical game?
These are digital PDF downloads for you to print at home. No physical item is posted. Each listing explains exactly which files are included.
Does anyone need to host or know the answers?
No. The group can investigate together. Hints and complete solutions are supplied in a separate guide, which you can leave closed until needed.
What do I need to play?
Ordinary paper and pens are enough for every case. Choose one A4 or US Letter Player File per case; standard and low-ink editions contain the same game. The Evidence Folio is optional: it restyles selected clues for the table and adds no extra puzzles. Keep Hints & Answers separate. No cutting, locks, props or app are needed. Play offline once the files are downloaded.
How difficult is The Meridian Cabinet?
The Meridian Cabinet is our starter case, suggested for ages 12+. Each puzzle explains what to do, and the separate guide has three hints per puzzle before the full answer. You can use as much or as little help as you like.
Can I replay or share the files?
You may print copies for your household and private game nights. Once you know a case's answers, you know its solution. Please do not resell, redistribute, publicly upload the files or use this personal-use edition for paid events.
What if I have trouble downloading or printing?
Download from Etsy.com in a phone/tablet browser or on a computer; the Etsy app does not currently download digital purchases. Signed-in buyers can use Purchases; guest buyers get a download link in their receipt email. Extract the ZIP and open START-HERE.txt, then choose one Player File per case. Print at 100%, or use Fit to printable area if your printer clips an edge. If you're still stuck, message us through your Etsy order with your device, filename, paper size and what happened.
