The Key: Theft at Cliffrock Villa
A string of high-profile thefts at a country villa prompts an investigation into perpetrators, times, stolen items and escape routes. Players collect and connect clues across those categories, deducing which combinations match the case files. Play centers on assembling information to generate a numeric code that identifies the culprits and secures a conviction. Scoring rewards efficiency and accuracy rather than raw speed.
