About This Game

“This case will be the ruin of us, my dear. There is still time for you to turn back.”


Hawkins & Sons Detective Agency is a detective visual novel where you unravel mysteries and investigate crimes. Explore atmospheric locations through point-and-click gameplay, interrogate suspects, and make crucial choices that shape the story.

London, 1895.

An ageing private detective, Arthur Hawkins, prepares to take on one final case before retirement. When a grieving widow appears at the door of his office, the matter seems too small to bother with — and Arthur is ready to refuse.

His daughter, who has dreamed of detective work since childhood, begs to join the investigation. Arthur’s heart is not made of stone. Knowing the profession is closed to her, he agrees to give his daughter a harmless little adventure.

The case, however, is anything but harmless. What begins as a simple inquiry soon draws father and daughter into a web of secrets, danger, and death.
