About the Game

The Nowhere Town

Welcome to the small, quiet town of Kettle Rock, cradled in the middle of nowhere in rural Idaho. This once prosperous town has now diminished to an almost-abandoned state, and it is here that Detective Lupe, a well-traversed investigator, finds themselves stranded by coincidence.

The Sinister Secret

With nothing better to do, Lupe offers guidance in what seems like a simple break-in case at the abandoned Winery, but the mystery soon reveals a darker secret within the town’s history. 

The Rookie

However, something lingers in the back of Lupe’s mind. Could it be feelings for their new partner in crime-solving? Or maybe an odd case of Deja Vu?

MEET THE ROOKIE is an exploration game focused on a mysterious narrative. Traverse the town, and meet a cast of mysterious characters. Lupe and Misra must work together to solve the mystery of the Kettle Rock Winery before it’s too late.
