Questions from grown-ups

What age is it designed for?

The puzzles and story are designed for children aged 7–11. Younger detectives may enjoy solving alongside a grown-up.

Does an adult need to prepare anything?

No complicated preparation is required. Keep the grown-up answer guide separate, then hand over the case envelope.

Yes. Your detective starts with Case 01 and a new mystery follows with each dispatch. You can pause or cancel at any time from your account, and nothing further is sent.
