Description

Make It Good is text-based Interactive Fiction: a Chandleresque noir detective story in which you play the hard-boiled detective trying to solve the case. Investigate the house, interrogate the suspects, piece the evidence together and, if you're smart enough, secure a conviction.

Called to a plush house in the hills of LA, you've got one last chance to crack a case or you'll be off the force. Four faces: here's hoping one of them looks guilty.

Time to adjust your hat, stiffen your collar and grab your badge off the dash. Here goes. You've one last chance... so make it good.
