Florence Murder Mystery: Self Guided Detective Game

This is a self-guided exploration game played in the Renaissance heart of Florence. You will explore 12 different locations while playing as a detective investigating the death of Bella, a famous travel blogger found dead during a ghost tour, with her boyfriend Walter and the guide Percy Shadows among the suspects.
