NextCrime

NextCrime is an investigative game based on real-life cases. You're given case files: photos, statements, documents, recordings. You read, listen, combine evidence on a whiteboard, and finally, identify the perpetrator.

SIXTH SINCE APRIL, A CASE FOR TWO, FREE
Ola is an accountant in Łódź. Grace registers patients at a clinic in Kalunga, Zambia. Every Tuesday, they chat online during English class. One evening, Grace says that the sixth girl since April has been found near the slag heaps, and the police aren't looking for anyone.
You play as a pair, each on your own phone. One of you searches the internet, the other walks around the city and talks to people. Each sees different case files. You send evidence to each other in chat, and whatever you don't send, the other person never sees. Six days of investigation at your own pace, puzzles, interrogations with voiceovers, and a joint decision at the end. Don't have anyone to play with? A player board is waiting in the app.
