The walls of Chimay Castle have overlooked the Grand-Place for centuries, but tonight something is wrong in this familiar setting. From Saint-Nicolas street, you already sense the first tensions: an evasive glance, a shutter closed too quickly. The investigation then leads you through the alleys surrounding the fortress, from witness to witness, each statement contradicting the previous one. It is up to you to cross-check, observe, and identify the culprit before they disappear into the shadow of the ramparts.
