Design Process
The game is based on the Mord im Museum game system. As a part of redesigning their permanent exhibition, Stadtmuseum Aarau wanted a new detective mystery game featuring Detective Bissig and Isabel Minischock – an unlikely duo of investigators – to make the exhibition come alive and spark additional interest among the visitors. The duo of investigators is modeled after the puppets with the same name by Helmut Zschokke, which are both featured in the museum’s permanent exhibition. The remaining cast of characters consist of tin-soldiers, stately clocks, swan-shaped sleds, and other objects from the new permanent exhibition. I was responsible for writing a multilinear crime story, designing riddles and overseeing the technical implementation of the app.
