Historical context
The Whitechapel case behind the quest
The experience draws on the unsolved 1888 Whitechapel murders and the police investigation that followed. The historical case remains unresolved.
Questo turns that setting into an interactive fictional investigation. The puzzles and your role as the investigator are part of the game; the experience does not claim to identify the real killer. Playable languages: English.
