How it works

Four steps from premise to verdict.

You give the premise. Casebound builds a fair-play puzzle around it — the evidence is all there, you just have to read it the way the killer hoped you wouldn’t.

01

Describe

A setting, a victim, a hunch about the suspects. Three lines is enough, in English or Swedish. Then Casebound takes it from there.

02

Examine

Comb the crime-scene photos, the autopsy and the evidence board. Some exhibits are red herrings — nothing marks which.

03

Interrogate

Read every suspect’s police interview. Alibis hide in the transcripts; so does the one contradiction that matters.

04

Accuse

After fifteen minutes on the case you may name the killer. You only get one shot.

Try before you buy

One case on the house.

The Ashcombe Manor Affair is free for everyone, no account needed to look around. Everything after it is a story you wrote.
