Nibble at the Crime Scene

Nibble at the Crime Scene

There's been a murder! Nothing could be more important than quickly finding some key evidence in order to solve the murder. Except maybe a quick snack.

Navigate through messy and cluttered crime scenes. Make your way to the cheese to enter detective mode. Follow the trail of revealed footprints to the key evidence.

Controls

Menu Select/Advance Story - X or Space or Enter

Tips

• Key evidence cannot be seen or collected until after the cheese is collected.
• Key evidence can be hidden under clutter and puddles.
• The chalk outline of the body cannot be stepped on or otherwise disturbed. It is a crime scene after all.
• Every level can be completed "cleanly," but there is no punishment for messy solutions.
• Like many Sokoban style games, puzzles can get into configurations where the level can no longer be cleared. Press R to instantly reset the current level.
