About This Game

A short, non-linear detective adventure. Investigate the mysterious disappearance of a successful CEO by analysing documents from her home and office. Examine evidence, connect clues, and make your own deductions to uncover a case of fraud.

Zoolingo is a seemingly successful startup company aiming to build a translation app that allows people to understand their pets. After landing an enormous amount of investor funding, the CEO has disappeared under suspicious circumstances. The only evidence you have is a whole lot of documents.
