A free two-player cooperative detective playtest from Shared Hunch.


Six artifacts. A concealed route. A disputed museum record. Restore the gallery together, trace its conduits, then compare two sets of evidence to reconstruct what changed.


Three connected interactions give the Field and Desk detectives different clues. Arrange objects, build a route, and assemble a final account of the records. Hints, undo and reset are available.


HOW TO PLAY TOGETHER

Each player opens the game on their own screen and chooses a different role: Field or Desk. Talk in person or over your own voice call. Describe your private evidence to your partner. Enter the same agreed solutions on both screens. Progress is manually synchronized; there are no automatic online rooms.


Play in your browser, or download the standalone HTML and open it locally to play offline. Progress saves on your device when browser storage is available. No game account or gameplay server is needed.


HELP SHAPE THE CASE

This is an experimental playtest in active development. Human playtime and role balance are not yet established. If you try it with a friend, comments about confusing clues, controls, and whether both roles contributed are welcome.


Writing, code and interface graphics were made with AI assistance. Free to play; payments and donations are disabled.
