Professor Carpenter, a famous Oxbridge scientist has been find murdered and it's up to you and three other friends to solve the murder before the other players do. Each player can take the information off the screen or print out an Initial information card to record any facts that they receive during the game which include murder weapons, facts about professions and distances between towns. Each player records the facts given to them on their cards as well as any murder weapons and then each player takes it turns to play.

The first player receives a quiz question and if answered correctly then they are allowed to ask one of the six suspects a question, but if the question is answered wrong then it is the next players turn. The questions a player can ask include weapons and valuable objects found on them, Town seen in, time of alibi and a personal fact about him. The other players look away and the answer is revealed. The player is given the opportunity whether they want to accuse a suspect but getting this wrong means the player is out of the game. The next player now answers a quiz question before asking one of the suspects another question.
