Cirque du Mystère – How To Play

Introduction

Take a step back in time to October 1995. You’re a kid again and the circus has come to town! It’s been returning to the outskirts of the sleepy town of Squall’s End every October for as long as you can remember. Over the years, kids have gone missing; explained away by the police as runaways who’ve joined the circus.

But, when your little brother goes missing, you begin to realize that something evil is afoot. It is now up to you to find your brother. Will you rescue him, or become the next victim of Cirque du Mystère?
