Game Overview
Set in 1995, Gumshoe Detective Agency: The First Case puts you in the shoes of a rookie investigator tackling your very first assignment—a missing heiress named Victoria Mason. Equipped with only a clunky desktop, a dial-up connection, and a handful of suspicious files, you’ll dive into emails, websites, chat logs, and glitchy software to uncover the truth. Each decrypted document and clue added to your evidence folder shifts the narrative, transforming what begins as a straightforward disappearance into a much larger and more complex mystery. To solve the case, you’ll need to think like a detective—or at least click like one. This modern homage to classic detective games combines vintage computer aesthetics with engaging, narrative-driven puzzles to deliver a unique experience for fans of 1990s PC mystery titles such as Nancy Drew and The Roottrees are Dead. Developed as a solo passion project, the game features an immersive point-and-click interface that authentically recreates the quirks of a ‘90s desktop environment. Players will piece together evidence using a persistent mystery file system, uncover interactive puzzles hidden in digital correspondence and files, and enjoy a rich atmosphere filled with Easter eggs, red herrings, and the perfect mid-’90s paranoia vibe. Gumshoe Detective Agency: The First Case offers a nostalgic yet fresh take on investigative gameplay that keeps you hooked until the final revelation.
