Found: Detective Cases

A phone comes off the evidence shelf. Nobody ever read past the first thread. Found is a detective game about the one thing every closed case already has and no one opened: somebody's phone. Eleven cases, each filed too early — a fall on a dark staircase, a car that never left the drive, a studio behind a house with a single pane out of the window. You get the phone. What you do with it is the game. HOW IT WORKS • Read the file. Every case opens with the briefing: what was concluded at the time, and what was never asked. • Take the phone. It arrives locked and low on battery, with the last notifications still on the screen. Messages, Gallery, Mail, Notes, Calls, Files and Maps. • Look at things. There is no "examine" button — opening a thread, a photo or a note is what examines it, and that is how clues surface. • Pin what matters. Evidence you save goes to the Detective Board. • Connect it. Tap one card, then another, and name the relationship: contradicts, supports, same time, same event. Cut a string and whatever leaned on it stops being proven. • Name what happened. Once the evidence supports a conclusion, the case opens for your answer — and the ending you get is the one your reasoning earned. WHAT'S IN IT • Eleven hand-written cases, from a four-minute training file to a thirty-minute investigation. Two and a half to three and a half hours in total. • Two cases free. One purchase opens the other nine — a single one-time unlock, not a subscription. • Two languages, in full: English and Persian (فارسی). • Play assists you control: objectives, a three-step hint ladder, evidence prompts, and automatic board connections. No combination of them can make a case unsolvable. • More than one ending per case, and a record of the ones you have collected. • No ads. No account. Nothing to sign up for, and it plays offline. These are quiet crimes, told in text — messages, notes, call logs and photographs. No gore and no jump scares. Just the ordinary record somebody left behind, and the part of it nobody read.
