Description
Montreal, the 1920s. A time of jazz, danger, and illegal deals under the table.
You wake beneath blooming cherry trees, your head pounding, and a mysterious wallet in your pocket.
One small mistake—picking up the wrong jacket—has pulled you into the orbit of Al Capone’s allies.
Now you’re racing through the city’s shadowy past, retracing your drunken steps from the night before.
Solve puzzles, locate hidden bars, and uncover secrets that could save your life… or make you disappear for good.
Perfect for thrill-seekers, mystery lovers, and anyone ready to experience Montreal in a completely new light.
📜 STORYLINE:
Light cuts through your blurry vision. You’re under cherry trees—but you don’t remember how you got there.
Your head spins.
Your clothes aren’t quite right.
Then you feel something in your pocket: a wallet.
It’s not yours.
The name inside?
Connected to Montreal’s most dangerous gangsters—friends of Capone and Conrad Labelle.
You don’t remember much from last night, but this wallet could be your death sentence.
You’ll need to think fast, retrace your steps, and return what doesn’t belong to you—before someone finds out you have it.
Just stay calm, stay clever… and stay alive.
