Today marks the beginning of your internship at the Cantaloupe Chronicle! Step into the shoes of a young reporter in a classic Point & Click Adventure as you uncover the mysteries of the small town. Write compelling articles, snap intriguing photos, and talk to the quirky townsfolk.
In Cantaloupe Chronicle, you step into the shoes of a budding journalist on your first day as an intern at the town’s quirky newspaper, The Cantaloupe Chronicle. Set in a cozy roadside town filled with intrigue, this game invites players to explore a rich, atmospheric environment. Interact with eccentric locals, solve puzzles, and uncover stories that will shape your career as a reporter.
The story centers on an old mystery, but the theme explores how not every story ends cleanly and how we learn to live without closure.

Players arrive in the cozy town of Cantaloupe to start their internship at their aunt's newspaper. What begins as a simple learning experience quickly turns into a quest to uncover the secrets of the town's past—including the mysterious case of a body found years ago.
As players collect items, talk to the townsfolk, and solve engaging puzzles, they’ll craft articles using an innovative text editor system. Writing doesn’t feel daunting here—players unlock text blocks from their investigations and insert them into articles with ease. From small-town gossip to the big front-page story, every article brings them closer to the ultimate truth.
Cantaloupe Chronicle is developed by a single developer, me – Tim Rachor. I have been working as a professional Game Designer for over 15 years in the industry and some years ago I decided that I wanted to create my own games in my spare time. This is the third point-and-click adventure I'll release and my 12th game on Steam overall.
