Nice. An 'experienced' crew of investigators? I didn't think that occurred.

Players don't have to suspend their disbelief and are able to draw conclusions quicker. When the man started whining, Toni went straight to the, "What's your name, what year is it" and the party could begin to fill in the blanks. I've been curious about a scenario such as this. Bravo.
[OT] When your a Keeper for experienced characters, do you plan on them being able to cut-to-the-chase? The structure has to be different it would seem. Maybe more Red-Herrings.

I did enjoy playing this scenario. I didn't expect my policeman to die though...

I really enjoyed these episodes fellas. Jonathan, I thought, did exceptionally well as the Keeper.

I nearly laughed out loud at the majestic understatement of:
"Now that is something I was not expecting."

Thanks for the kind words.

I'm just re listening to this scenario. I agree it's nice to jump into these kind of short scenarios with investigators that are a bit more credulous.

I was very pleased with the ending. Also you might be entertained to know that Professor Cromworth Will Return!
