An episodic co-op noir murder mystery. Play as one half of a crime-fighting duo: the detective Jack Finch and his police dog, Archie. Use your deduction skills and sense of smell to find evidence, interrogate suspects, and catch the culprit in a gritty story set in the Great Depression.
The careless romance and glamour of the Roaring ‘20s in America are over; poverty and crime run rampant in the grimy streets of the Great Depression. Jack Finch, a reclusive but hard-nosed detective, has sworn he’ll never work with another partner again. But his boss doesn't much care about him vowing to work alone – and soon he finds himself teamed up with the newly graduated police dog Archie. He might want nothing to do with the spunky canine, but with a mass murderer on the loose and an ever-growing case file, the new team has to learn to work together if they want to catch the culprit and restore peace to the city…
COOP PLAY: CHOOSE THE COP OR THE DOG
Finch & Archie is a two-player co-op. You can choose to be either the weathered detective Jack Finch or the good boy Archie. Please don’t fight over who gets to be the dog.

FIND A WAY TO COMMUNICATE WITH YOUR PARTNER
Because you are a human-dog partnership, communication does not come easy. You will have to be creative to explain your findings to your partner. The mystery cannot be solved without sharing evidence between yourselves – but unless you speak dog (or can bark in human), you’ll need to find creative ways to communicate with your partner…

BRING YOUR UNIQUE SKILLS TO THE INVESTIGATION
Both Finch and Archie bring their own strengths and unique skills to the investigation. Use either your magnifying glass or your excellent sense of smell to find and gather evidence that will help you with your case.

INTERROGATE SUSPECTS AND WITNESSES
Suspects can be as wily as witnesses can be unreliable. Question their motives, find out their alibis, poke holes in their testimonies, and use evidence to catch them in lies and contradictions.

ANOTHER NIGHT, ANOTHER CASE
Dive deep into a collection of hard-boiled, noir crime stories set in the Great Depression. Finch & Archie is an episodic game, and each episode opens a new investigation – but they are all tied into an overarching story.
