About the game

What you do in a play session

If you enjoy a good mystery and want to feel like you're in a crime investigation show, Cinayet Sudokusu #2: Şile’de Karanlık Bir Gece is a perfect choice. The premise is classic yet well-executed: a quiet weekend at a seaside villa in Şile turns into a nightmare when the internet goes down, security cameras stop recording, and, upon returning, the host is found dead. The game puts you and your group (or you alone, if you prefer the solo mode) in the role of investigators who need to unravel this bizarre crime.

The heart of the game revolves around a logic matrix. You have five suspects, five objects, and five different locations in the villa. The challenge is to cross-reference the information provided by the case file to figure out who was where, which object was with whom, and, of course, who committed the crime. Beyond the murder itself, there is a missing debt ledger that adds an extra layer of intrigue to the plot. It’s not just about guessing; it’s about organizing the puzzle pieces until the full picture makes sense.

The experience is heavily focused on pure deduction. You will read the case, compare clues, and eliminate possibilities. It’s the kind of game that demands attention to detail, as a misinterpreted piece of information can lead to the wrong conclusion. The format is excellent for those who like games that don't take up the whole table and can be solved in a 20 to 40-minute session. It’s a standalone game, meaning each box brings a self-contained mystery, without needing expansions or extra materials. If you are a fan of logic games, Sudoku-style, but with a suspenseful narrative behind it, this title will keep you hooked from beginning to end. Grab a notepad, call your friends (or take on the challenge solo), and see if you can unmask the culprit before the night in Şile ends without justice.
