About The Painscreek Killings
The Painscreek Killings is a murder mystery investigation game. As Janet, a young journalist, you travel to a once-lively town that has been abandoned. Your editor asks you to investigate its mysterious abandonment, and reports of the townspeople’s deaths lead you there expecting a story to publish. Instead, you uncover secrets that were meant to stay hidden.
Investigate the town
Explore freely, following the clues and hints you find. Search your surroundings carefully, take notes and photograph important clues, then connect the evidence to expose the truth behind the killings. The game provides no quest markers or hint system, so you must use observation and deduction to solve logical puzzles and piece together what happened.
The town’s secrets
Your investigation uncovers conspiracies, heartache and jealousy, along with secrets meant to be buried with the abandoned town.
