Talk to the servants of the palace to get hints that let you catch the culprit. The game's backdrop and story are based on historical sources.Choose your game mode

The minigames include polishing pewter, lighting a fireplace with flint and steel, and making hot chocolate in 1700s fashion. The minigame mode features a shorter story with more emphasis on the minigames and is suitable for a younger audience.Can you solve the mystery?
