It is the year 1400 and you are Abelard Lavel, a knight living in Paris. Since you were a child, strange prophetic dreams of past and future crimes have haunted you. You managed to put your power to good use, solving mysteries that nobody else could. Now thanks to your growing reputation, the people of Paris seek your help. Will you come to their aid?
It’ll be down to you to make the connections between the visions and reality and put the pieces of the puzzle together.
Chronicles of Crime 1400 is a stand-alone, cooperative game of crime investigation. Using Scan & Play technology to mix digital and board games, it allows for many crime investigation stories to be told with the same components. Interrogate the suspects, collect evidence, and find the culprit before you run out of time!
The characters and the story form the most important and compelling part of any case. You will meet a huge variety of characters from professors to market vendors, the nobility to the peasantry, and it will be down to you to decide who is worth your time investigating and who is going to waste your time with their personal issues.
Surrounding each case is a vivid world depicted not only in beautiful locations but also in virtual reality crime scenes. You will use the Chronicles of Crime app to inspect all the details of each crime scene and you’ll have to cooperate to pick out the important evidence quickly.
Note: This game requires an app to play, but once downloaded no Internet connection is needed to play. You currently need Android 4.4 or newer, or iOS 8.0 or newer to run the app.
