THE MYSTERY OF SCRATCH: THE COLD CASE An anomaly has hit the headquarters! A top-secret digital file containing the core blueprints of the website has vanished from the main archives. The security system was bypassed, leaving no digital traces behind. Five elite members of the team were present in the building when the blackout occurred, and every single one of them—including Scratch Cat—is now a prime suspect. You have been brought in as the independent investigator. The files are on your desk. Trust no one, analyze the evidence, and crack the case. HOW TO OPERATE YOUR DETECTIVE DESK: - INVESTIGATE THE FILES: Click directly on the folder on your desk to open it. To navigate through the suspect files and read the CSI profiles, simply click anywhere on the page to flip to the next document. Once you reach the final page, the folder will automatically close and return you to the main desk view. - USE THE MAGNIFYING GLASS: Some clues and hidden contradictions are too small to see with the naked eye. While reading any file inside the folder, press and hold the [M] key on your keyboard. This activates your high-tech magnifying glass, which will smoothly follow your mouse pointer. Use it to scan the text and backgrounds very carefully for hidden secrets! - EXAMINE THE ROOM: Look closely at your surroundings. Keep an eye on the office clock, study the connections on the string-linked evidence board, and use the tools on your wooden table to help you piece the puzzle together.
