The Story

London, today. You just left the commissioner’s office. You’re not sure how you feel, but definitely not good. A body was found in Hyde Park, and the commissioner just made it your case.

It’s not your first murder case. But with the vague details the commissioner gave you, something about this one feels worse than usual. You can feel it in your guts.

You leave the police station, get in your car, and close the door. You think about what you just heard. You already know you’ll have to tell the family, and that’s no easy task.

You shake off your thoughts, start the engine, and drive away to the crime scene. Time to get to work.

Imagine a game like Time Stories, but where the material is fully reusable to play new stories way after you have purchased the game. This is the promise of Chronicles of Crime.

Enabled by our ‘Scan & Play’ technology, each character, location, or evidence is linked to a QR Code. This means that each character can become someone else, each district can be linked to a different place and 3D scenes can be reinvented.

This gives your game the capacity to become anything based on each author’s take on it!

A key element of Chronicles of Crime is the capacity to search for physical evidence in Virtual Reality. If you have purchased the optional VR Glasses (sold separately), attach them to your device, bring them to your eyes and experience the crime scene as if you were there.

While the player looking at the scene describes out loud what they see, the other players try to find the matching evidence categories. After the 45 second session ends, each category is scanned to see if it actually carries an interest for the investigation.

You can also play without VR Glasses, by simply moving around with your phone or by a touch of a finger!
