A box of film from an old charity evening has been discovered at Wrzos cinema. Six frames and surviving records may help explain the theft of money collected for a library renovation. An old suspicion was never enough to establish a sound account. Work through three acts. Start with questions and a preliminary timeline, then choose the first folders to investigate. Further comparisons unlock the rest of the archive; no choice blocks access to the evidence. Clocks, off-camera space and object dimensions contribute to your shared reconstruction. All important visual details have equivalent written descriptions. For 2–6 players aged 12+, with no required facilitator. There is no violence, compulsory interrogation, timer or penalty for revising hypotheses. The film consists of printed frames and motion descriptions; play is entirely on paper. All game materials are in Polish; this English text describes the product. One complete case with a fixed solution. The intended 90–120 minutes of play and around 15 minutes of preparation after reading, excluding printing, remain estimates. Review and dependency modelling have been completed. Human playtests, a physical print check and independent preparation by a new person are pending.
