CHALK & BLOOD is a noir detective puzzle where logic is your only weapon. Read the clues, deduce where every suspect stood the night of the murder, then corner the one left alone with the victim and name the killer. A hard-boiled campaign and endless cases await. Pick up the chalk, detective.

No more grass in a bedroom or a bed in the kitchen: the library…
