Welcome to Borgo Marina, the perfect summer haven where sun-soaked days and sparkling nights promise the perfect getaway. You are Diana, an amateur writer looking for inspiration after the rejection of her most recent piece. But beware— an enigmatic thief is causing trouble, and it’s up to you to crack the case!
Investigation! Start!
The locals are plagued by the phantom thief. Engage with different villagers to receive quests and uncover their own unique storylines. And who knows, maybe you’ll discover key insights and clues into the case.
Uncover Clues
Time is your friend, detective. Use the magical device known as a chronolens to investigate crime scenes and view things how they were before the crime took place. Use this unique information to make your deductions and get to the bottom of the crime!
Recreate The Crime
Once you’ve gathered your clues, it’s time to get down to business. Utilizing a unique card system, you must uncover the correct series of events and reenact the crime scene! Watch the crime play out in real time with a diorama of the crime scene that reacts to the clue cards you play.
Build Relationships
What’s a vacation without making some new friends? Borgo Marina is filled with locals who are looking to strike up a conversation, play some games, or even looking for something a little bit more than friendship?
The Cozy Life
Solving puzzling crimes isn’t all you’ll do! After all, you came for a vacation! Kick back and relax solo or with villagers in a variety of fun mini-games around town. Cook some food, go fishing, play marbles on the beach, go swimming, or play at the arcade. If you’re looking to bring in some extra cash, you can also pick up part-time jobs like serving gelato to earn some money for spending. How you spend your vacation is up to you!
