CAN YOU ONLY PLAY UNSOLVED CASE FILES ONCE?
Yes. It’s like a murder mystery book or a movie - once you know how it ends you can't really experience it the same.
If you take care of the materials in the case and are sure to reassemble them in the same way, you may be able to pass your Unsolved Case File along to another murder mystery fan.

WHAT AGE IS THE GAME APPROPRIATE FOR?
Most of our Unsolved Case Files are created for individuals ages 14 and older.
We try to keep the content at a level that would easily pass as a PG-13 movie. Most older teens will be fully capable of solving the cases but some younger ones might need some help from an older friend or adult.
We also offer a few cases that are kid-friendly and do not include any murder, violence or other adult themes. Those cases are labeled as "Family Cases"
