Metro County, Ohio. October 2006.

Rebecca Flores, a 34-year-old accountant, is found dead inside Room 214 of the Marlowe Motor Lodge.

No obvious forced entry. No simple answer. And nearly everyone involved is hiding something.

You are the detective.

Search the room. Follow the paper trail. Question witnesses. Review surveillance footage. Compare documents. Request forensic testing. Build your own timeline and decide which details actually matter.

CASEWORK does not connect the clues for you.

A witness can lie without being the killer. A record can be incomplete. A suspicious detail can lead somewhere important—or nowhere at all.

When you believe you understand what happened, file the case yourself.

CASE 06-214 — ROOM 214

The current build contains one complete handcrafted murder investigation with a fixed solution and multiple ways to reach the truth.

You can:

  • Examine detailed crime scenes and field locations
  • Search police, vehicle, property and municipal records
  • Interview witnesses and confront them with what you find
  • Review VHS surveillance footage frame by frame
  • Collect and process physical evidence
  • Compare documents and financial records
  • Request forensic and medical reports
  • Build your own evidence board
  • Reconstruct events on a timeline
  • Keep private working notes
  • Receive calls, voicemail, faxes and follow-up information
  • Make the wrong accusation if your theory does not hold up

The game tracks what you discover.

It does not decide what it means.

THE INVESTIGATION CONTINUES

CASEWORK is currently in development.

Room 214 is the first case in a larger detective game set throughout Metro County, Ohio.

Future cases are planned to take you beyond the motel into missing-person investigations, suspicious fires, cold cases, workplace crimes, unexplained deaths and other incidents across the county.

New locations, in-person interviews, expanded evidence handling and additional investigative systems are also being developed.

Buying CASEWORK during development helps support the creation of future cases and updates.

The evidence is there.

Build a case that holds up.
