About this game

Max Carrados, a famous blind amateur detective 🕵️ (created by Ernest Bramah), is waking up in The Turrets, his London house.

However, dark clouds are forming on the horizon and criminals are plotting their sins even in this peaceful morning. The phone is ringing, ... could this be another case to investigate?
