Jenny LeClue si lancia in un'avventura poliziesca nella sonnacchiosa Arthurton, dopo che la madre finisce accusata di omicidio. I giocatori la accompagnano nella ricerca della verità, attraverso scelte che modellano una metanarrazione, con il narratore Arthur K.

Questa indie adventure offre un mondo disegnato a mano con estetica anni '50, segreti sparsi in luoghi come miniere abbandonate, un cimitero dimenticato, Lake Noware e la biblioteca di Gumboldt.

I giocatori casual che esplorano ogni dettaglio scoprono rivelazioni e umorismo in questa storia completa, incentrata su famiglia, perdita e identità.

The "author" of Jenny's adventures, Arthur K Finklestein, acts as narrator and guide, but his presence also allows you to make choices that change the way Jenny's story is written. These choices may even affect Finklestein’s own story.
A Diverse Cast Of Characters & Locations:
Explore Arthurton’s expansive world including the abandoned mines, the forgotten graveyard, Lake Noware, and Gumboldt's Library. Jenny will meet an array of intriguing and suspicious characters who could help or hinder her on her quest for the truth.
Developer's Note:
This is game one of a planned two game story arc. Jenny LeClue - Detectivu is a complete game experience, like a season of a TV show. Yes, there is a cliffhanger at the end, as it is a mystery story, but there are also conclusions to be made. In addition, we will take the player choices into account and they will influence the way we as the developer create the 2nd game. We hope you enjoy! =]
