Sacre Sleuth! (beta)
A downloadable game
This is an in-between project that came to mind while working late at night. It is a work in progress.
Congratulations!
You’ve just been promoted to detective and the youngest one on the force working under, oh great, Chief Cheff Winston, the gritty senior policeman. He will assign you three cases. Take the metro to arrive at the crime scenes and talk to people and look for clues on how to solve the cases,.
- Dect. Denis (Champ Gibson) Tanguay (EN pronounciation: Tan-gay): You've just been promoted and it's up to you to figure out who did the crime. By the way, why ARE you wearing a trapper hat during a Montreal summer?
- Cheff E. Winston: The gritty police chief who started as a nobody and has worked his way to the top. He currently works out of the headquarters in downtown Montreal. He's a tough cookie with very little tolerance.
- Manon Rachel is his secretary. When she's on the job, there's no time for small talk. Manon has been work for Cheff for over 20 years. He knows anything he asks for will be done before he finishes his favorite coffee from Cafe Winks.
- D.I.V.A - Your AI partner who's know to have a bit of sass. She will be a very powerful ally in solving your cases. Consult her often.
- Catherine Katt or CatKatt as she goes by is always hanging around different events in the Montreal area and seems connected. Hmm....
"Il fait beau dans l'metro"
Get to the crime scene using the Montreal train system. Sadly, you don't get a police cruiser but you do get a Voyager card where you can travel through the metro. Hey, it's better than walking.
Case SV-1001-PM: ComicCON - Find out who stole the grand prize of the extremely rare comic book during the cosplay competition.
Case SV-1024-PM - Tapped out - Help the legendary Thibault family find out who's been taking their stock of maple syrup.
Case SV-1152-PM - Frite alors! (EN: Freet Ah-lore) - Guy Birdie needs your help. People are getting sick at the week-long poutine festival. Is it sabotage or a protest again fries, cheese and gravy?
Everyone is a suspect, Some more than others. Look for any clues in the game to help you solve the crime. D.I.V.A will work in the background gathering information. Talk to her from time to time.
Scroll through the menu and interrogate people to get clues on who is the guilty party. Once you have all the proof you need, generate a warranty with D.I.V.A.'s help. From there, do another interrogate of the guilty party and solve the case.

I keep running into game stopping issues, where after talking to someone there is no way to do anything else. The person wont say anymore and there is no way to leave the screen. Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Which of the three cases causes the issues? I will look into it.
Its seems to happen randomly on the 1st case. I cant get past it.
We are not in abercorn anymore indeed
