The Netherlands, 1698: Cornelius Kloos, the former president of the Kloos Trading Company, is found dead. His studio safe is opened: inside is a will, still sealed. Thirst for power? Greed? Revenge? What led to such a gruesome epilogue? Collect the clues: documents, traces, testimonies... The players must investigate and propose plausible theories. On their turn, players play a card from their hand and place it face up on the table, sharing the information it contains, or they discard a card from their hand face down on the archive and are not allowed to talk about the information it contains, until the investigation is over. Each card has a value from 1 to 10 in the upper left corner. A card can only be played face up on the table if its value is equal to or less than the current number of cards in the archive.
