Overview
Description

Step into the roaring twenties as Alfie Banks, an ordinary salesman chasing fortune in the booming real‑estate market of Coral Gables, Florida. Based on real events and locations, the game blends historical intrigue with classic point‑and‑click adventure gameplay. Navigate mob pressure, looming economic collapse, and natural disasters while dealing with bootleggers, corrupt politicians, and rival developers. Your choices shape Alfie's rise—or fall—in this richly detailed, story‑driven experience.

Rosa Blackwell inherits a mysterious legacy when her relative dies, thrusting her into the role of a medium alongside the sardonic 1930s ghost Joey Mallone. Together they investigate eerie deaths across New York, guiding restless spirits to peace through clever puzzles and sharp dialogue. The game blends humor, drama, and mystery in a classic point‑and‑click format, offering a richly narrated story that rewards careful observation and thoughtful conversation.
