Overview

Set in the charmingly eerie town of Grimwick, No Murders in Grimwick is a short, story-driven adventure from indie developer Bee and Boo Games. You play as a journalist who arrives to cover the town's beloved fall festival, only to stumble upon a body displayed as part of the scarecrow competition.

What follows is a relaxed investigation filled with dark humor, strange characters, and plenty of autumnal atmosphere.

Highlights

  • No combat, no time pressure – The entire experience is built around exploration and dialogue, letting you piece together the mystery at your own pace.
  • A cozy yet macabre tone – The game balances dark themes (including stylized depictions of murder) with a lighthearted, festival-inspired charm.
  • Perfect for a single evening – With a playtime of roughly 1–2 hours, it's designed to be finished in one sitting, ideal for a cozy night in.

Who It's For

If you enjoy point-and-click adventures, detective stories, or narrative-heavy games with a quirky sense of humor, this one's for you. It's also a great pick for players who prefer relaxed, non-violent investigations over action-packed gameplay.

The short length makes it accessible even for those with limited gaming time.
