aBOUT THE PROJECT
‘Washed Upon A Murder’ follows the story of a both figuratively and literally washed-up detective, who upon being washed upon a beach, quickly finds himself in the middle of a murder mystery.
You play as Sal, a detective who is down on his luck and ends up washed upon a private island after a few drinks too many on his retirement cruise trip.
Upon this island you encounter a cast of eccentric characters, one of whom is the owner of the private island. Unfortunately, Sal is forced to delay his retirement as the owner of the island is found murdered the next morning.
Once more, he is forced to put on his detective cap for one last case… Nobody can be trusted, everyone on the island is a suspect with a legitimate motive for murder. Can you help Sal solve the mystery of ‘Washed Upon A Murder’?
We plan to release Washed Upon A Murder around Q4 2024
