Crack the Case: Mysteries at the Museum

By Thea Hay

Crack the Case is the brand-new interactive book series in which YOU solve mysteries and stop dastardly deeds with the help of your trusty Detective Flashlight. Shine the images on every page to create and crack puzzles, uncovering clues in a race against time.

In Mysteries at the Museum, take on the role of renowned detective Inspector Renoir as you chase down a notorious art thief. This book contains three individual mysteries and over 25 puzzles, all part of a single thrilling story. Start the story, slot the Image Disk into your Detective Flashlight, and get cracking

On each page, you'll find a different puzzle for you and your torch to solve. With the flashlight switched on, rotate the disk to project the right image. On and off the page, use it to unlock a safe, shine a light on suspicious items, or even examine fingerprints at the scene of the crime. In the hands of an expert detective, there's no end to what your flashlight can tackle

But the flashlight isn't the only tool in your crime-fighting toolkit: you'll also find a map of the famed art museum where the heist takes place. This will come in handy on select puzzles that require a birds'-eye-view, so you have everything you need to unravel the mystery and catch the thief.

Alongside the puzzles and the detective story, you'll find non-fiction entries on real-life art heists, crimefighting techniques, and even infamous blunders by criminal not-quite-masterminds

Crack the Case: Mysteries at the Museum is a one-of-a-kind interactive adventure that is sure to appeal to gamers, codebreakers, and detectives in the making, complete with timeless illustrations and memorable characters. The game is afoot--will you take up the chase?
