A fictional interactive thriller. San Miradas, its characters, and its events are invented.

July 1985 · 101° at midnight

The whole town sleeps with the windows open.

Four homes in six weeks. No forced entry. A face that never turns toward the camera. You work alone beneath the red safelight, developing the neighborhood’s film one roll at a time.

Every print is a source. Every witness leaves something out. What you preserve on the case wall changes the plan you can make when the watcher finally comes to your street.

Three ways to investigate

Look closely. Then prove it.

Photo searching appears only when a print matters. The rest of the case asks what the evidence means—and what you are willing to do with it.

Inspect

Two crucial photographs

Pinch from the full print, work at your own pace, and use free hints when a detail stays buried.

Connect

Test every conclusion

Link testimony to visible facts. A weak connection comes loose; a proven one changes the case.

Commit

Build the night’s plan

Reconstruct routes, choose what to protect, and live with the consequences when the plan meets the house.

Link the Evidence screen showing a crime scene print and conclusions ready to connect to visible details. — Evidence linking Build an argument, not a shopping list of objects.

The case wall

Nothing disappears after you find it.

Reopen source prints, follow the evidence across nights, and test six optional case theories. The wall records what you proved—not what the story told you to believe.

Case score: Rewards accurate investigation
Instinct: Builds when your reads stay sharp
Thread board: Six theories hidden in the evidence
