An interactive murder mystery unraveled by communicating with the dead …literally.
Faithfully reenacted from the original court records and letters, players investigate the true case of Australia’s first female serial killer. Users are free to ask their own questions to determine whether she was truly guilty, or unjustly executed.
This provocative format challenges players to reflect on their own prejudices and reconsider the verdict of a contentious legal case. Was the accused a callous adulteress, drunkard, and liar, or a victim of sexist expectations?

Communicate with a convicted killer.
Ask questions using topics via a spirit board.
Delve into a complex and dramatic murder mystery.
Immerse yourself in a faithful, dramatic recreation of a Victorian-era court case.

How to Play
The goal is to watch all the messages to find out the full story. Listen to the statements, then query topics that are mentioned.
Enter the
spirit words
by using the letters on the spirit board, then press
YES
to pass that query on to the character. Pressing
NO
can be used to delete letters or pause the message.
Your query can then be seen as chalk writing on the picture. The character will respond if your queries are relevant to what she has to say. Her messages will be highlighted in the numbers on the board. You can then listen those messages by selecting the numbers. The game starts with a
spirit word
available to begin the conversation.
As more story is revealed, the picture frame increasingly becomes covered in gold.
The flower button under the face on the left stores a list of
spirit words
that successfully received responses. You can use this list to watch those messages again.
The flower button under the face on the right includes options to clear all queries (
Reset
), show/hide
Subtitles
, and activate/deactivate the
Hints
mode. The hints mode displays
spirit words
that will successfully get a response, but only at various points of progress if you fail to get a message.
Pressing
GOOD BYE
allows you to exit the game. However, your query history remains stored so you can continue playing at a later date.
