Play as Detective Alex Monroe in his new adventure where he solves a murder mystery, while on vacation on a cruise ship!

Heavily inspired by classic point and click adventure games, you play as Detective Alex Monroe, where you are expected to use your wits to solve challenging puzzles and uncover the real culprit aboard the cruise.
