Hello again,
You were a great help last year.
Let’s see what we can achieve together this time round.
– Rain
Granite Noir: Investigations
Granite Noir: Investigations
Crack the code and solve puzzles chapter by chapter to figure out whodunnit!
All you have to do is figure out the answers to all 8 chapters of the case.
You’ll have to find the chapters throughout our site. Do this by solving the riddle given every week over on Facebook or at Granite Noir: Investigations. By successfully solving the riddle, you’ll unlock each chapter to the case and get one step closer to solving the mystery.
We’ll ask for an 8 character case code at the end. Gather the code bit by bit by answering each chapters question correctly. The final answer might look something like this: SOLUTION.
Once you’ve figured out the case code, keep a note of it. We’ll post a CASE SUMMARY asking for the final code.
Simply, send in the right code and then you’ll be entered into a draw to win some prizes. Good luck!
