Detective Academy Game Ages 6-7

A mystery is unfolding at Detective Academy.

The Great Detective Guide, the academy’s most precious book, has disappeared. For many years, it has contained the detective knowledge, investigative techniques, and methods used to train generations of young detectives.

Earlier today, teachers discovered that the safe where the guide was kept had been opened. The book had vanished.

Even stranger, there is no evidence of a break-in.

It soon becomes clear that the person responsible must be familiar with every corner of the academy. The thief is almost certainly someone from inside the school.

The investigation is now in the hands of the academy’s young detectives.

To crack the case, players must examine clues, compare fingerprints, eliminate suspects, decode messages, and follow the evidence left behind. With each puzzle solved, they move closer to discovering the truth and recovering the missing guide before it ends up in the wrong hands.

Created specifically for younger children, this detective mystery combines observation, logic, and deduction through an engaging investigation that keeps players involved until the final reveal.
