This a cooperative detective story! From the beginning of the game you get all information (newspaper, interviews, links to websites etc.) and then you have to solve the case! The golden wedding of the Countess von Donnerswarth was to be an epoch-making event. A remote, noble hotel, exquisite guests and, to top it off, a banquet at which the countess would display her husband's gift: the legendary Ramanpur diamond. But that same night the precious gem inexplicably disappears from your hotel safe. Who among the guests knew the safe combination? Who had access to the crime scene?
