Sometimes it is enough to examine an object to obtain further information. Sometimes, however, you'll have to use an item on another to get to its secret. Remember that the detective follows even the strangest tips.

In addition to the secrets of the household and traces and objects hidden in various places, you will encounter some unexpected logical puzzles - the murder mystery is not the only one in this house.
