About This Game

Detective Club: Carnival of Secret is a story-driven hidden-object puzzle adventure set beneath the glittering tents of a carnival where nothing is as it seems. When a night of celebration turns into a waking nightmare, you must uncover the truth behind the music — before the entire city falls under its spell.

Thomas arrives at the fairground with Emily and George, expecting fireworks, laughter, and a legendary performance by Flemus Taimer — the fakir who weaves flame like ribbon. But when a sudden gust of wind scatters their tickets into the darkness, chaos takes hold. Inside the big top, Emily's cherished pendant vanishes from her neck, and Thomas catches a glimpse of a figure no one should notice: Grimas, a clown with a pale smile and a flute that seems to pull at people's minds. Rumors of missing city folk suddenly stop being rumors when strange violet smoke begins to appear wherever the music plays — and those who breathe it can't remember what they did… only that they obeyed.

Now the carnival's magic is no longer a spectacle — it is a weapon. To save the innocent and expose the mastermind behind the music, Thomas must follow the smoke beneath the stage, uncover the hidden machinery, and break the melody before the entire city becomes part of the final act.

Explore dazzling fairground streets and sinister backstage corners — from the main tent and a chilling horror attraction to abandoned wagons, locked safes, and the silent corridors of city hall. Collect letters, photographs, permits, blueprints, and chemical samples that piece together what the carnival truly is — and who benefits from it. Follow the trail of the violet smoke, uncover why the missing never return, and make choices under pressure that will determine who survives the night.
