Where to start my story? A simple Missing Person case, I thought. I’ve solved a hundred of them. Why should this one be any different? If only I had known how wrong I was, known how high the stakes were and how the fate of every man, woman and child would rest on my actions.

Sure, I thought I had seen it all in my time–betrayals and revelations, signs and wonders!. When you have been doing this as long as I have, you learn to roll with the punches, expect the unexpected. At my age, I didn’t think it was possible to surprise me anymore. Nothing new under the sun and all that.

I could have walked away. When I started to suspect who was involved and what it would mean, I could have bowed out. Saving the world is a young man’s game and I’ve already paid my dues. The “30 Years Meritorious Service” medal I have in my sock drawer says so. I should just let this one go.

But the truths and lies I have uncovered in the last few days have opened my eyes to something sinister. Something evil lurking just below the surface in this town I love, this town I thought I knew.
This town called Happenstance.



A Town Called Happenstance is a (fairly) traditional point and click adventure, in a stunning cel-shaded style and built in Unreal Engine. Set in a fully 3D world, with a traditional side on fixed camera view, you'll play an adventure in a way like never before!



Join the world's premier septuagenarian freelance detective as he uncovers a conspiracy that goes all the way to the top!

Oh, one last thing before you start; Carter is well aware that he's inside an indie game, and he's not at all happy about it. Not one bit.
