Grok the Monkey

Grok is in serious trouble. You were watching the magic show when he killed his partner, Rollo the Magnificent, on stage. You may not have had a front row seat, but it was tough to miss the chimp throwing down a sandbag from the rigging, striking the magician and snapping his neck.

An accident? Or did someone manipulate the situation and make a chump of the chimp?

It’s up to you to unravel the web of deceit and lies that make up The Parker Carnival and Sideshow Extravaganza. Who better to help Grok prove his innocence than a police detective who witnessed the whole thing?

As the investigating officer, you will:
• Explore the story and game in any order you like
• Question carnies and carny workers
• Search their living spaces and performance areas for clues and evidence
• Create a list of suspects
• Review lab reports on the suspects and evidence
• Explore detailed background information on the carnival, its employees, and its owners
• Make your case by selecting a suspect along with the supporting evidence

Featuring a fourteen chapter novel, written by Rollo’s assistant, Angel Rossini, that explores the backgrounds of the carnies. It delves into the depths of despair, the delight and the discovery of carny life, and what made them choose it.

For readers, this interactive murder mystery will bring many hours of pleasure, amusement, and thought.
