Small Town Murders is a match-3 puzzle game in which each level played reveals new clues in an ongoing story! Follow along with crime novelist Nora Mistry as she helps Deputy Shanahan unravel mysterious cases in the idyllic town of Thornton Grove.

The game is played by completing levels. Within levels, solve puzzles by making matches of three or more tiles to collect objective pieces. Certain match combinations can create powerful power-ups that will help with clearing levels. Each level has a moves limit, and when all moves are used, the level is failed and a life is lost. There are five lives total, and when the number of lives reaches zero, it is not possible to continue playing. However, lives will recharge over time!

With each level that is completed, a new part of the story will be shown. Keep playing levels to advance the story, and solve cases!
