Private Vancouver Sightseeing Adventure: a Gastown murder mystery
Overview
Do you have what it takes to figure out who killed Jimmy Capello, how, and why? He was poisoned, strangled AND stabbed... popular guy!
You will be met by a real person in character as a detective who will send you on your murder investigation and give you everything you need to play.
