Adorable Nora solves mysteries!
If you love finding clues to solve a good mystery set in a small-town atmosphere with engaging characters, this game is for you! So cute & so deadly, too: Nora is a mystery writer who has come here to clear her writer’s block, & she’s landed smack dab in a murder mystery right away—& is lending a hand to the hunky deputy who’s working the case!
Another great thing about this game: The creators are engaging, too! On FB, be sure to like the game & participate, because it’s a lot of FUN to WIN, too! I play a couple other very well-known games, & I’ve never WON anything—until “Small Town Murders”!
It’s a cute notebook with character stickers to track clues, etc. I’m so excited to win & to receive such a nifty prize! And the best part? They picked several other winners, too, which shows how much they want to engage with their fans & build loyalty & trust.🥰👏❤️ Thank you, “Small Town Murders”, for creating such a fun, stress-free game that makes its players feel SPECIAL!

Von Langley,
A measure of pleasure and pain
This is your typical match three game with power ups and a story overlay. You’ve seen them before. Home remodeling, garden remodeling, etc. I have played all these games because they are fun. At first. Then after they’ve hooked you the puzzles become so aggravatingly difficult that you are tempted to throw your phone across the room. This one at least is unique as the murder cases are interesting and fun to solve. But this ended for me today as I tried to get through one puzzle that took me 42 tries to solve and never did. I deleted the game.
On the other games similar in design I have paid to play but I can’t do that anymore. They have designed it purposely to get you to pay more and more and more. Well I refuse.
A message to developers. If you want people to continue to play your games, make some adjustments. Instead of 900 coins for 5 more moves, make it 100. When what you receive for solving a puzzle is usually around 60 coins, this would make it easier to play. Eliminate the number of lives you are giving. If you don’t solve a puzzle after 5 lives you can’t play until you earn the 5 lives back. And again you feel like crushing your phone. Instead of a free game, let us solve the first murder, the pay to buy the game. 5.99 or something like that. Until a major change is made I can’t play this game. But it’s not because I don’t like it. It’s because I can’t afford to get a new phone.

mrs. m's biggest fan,
Difficult, frustrating, fun, and funny!
I’m on level 2000-something. I mention that just to say that obviously I’m pretty hooked. I have paid to play more than I’d like to admit, too. But the challenge of the games and the puns imbedded in the stories keep me coming back! Clever writing, sometimes corny. Not extremely accurate crime solving, but, hey, it’s a game! I have noticed two big changes from when I started playing, though: 1) the airplanes used to be downright sentient, I swear. They would strike at exactly the place where you needed them to strike. And now they hit targets that aren’t even necessary to advance in the level, they hit spots not even on the “to-do” list! Obviously a programming gimmick to encourage spending money. I am constantly left just ONE MOVE SHORT! That can’t be a coincidence. 2)Also I’ve noticed several times I have made a move that should have created a power-up, but it didn’t. That’s called “cheating” IRL, frankly. But other than that, no real complaints. Like I said, I’m hooked, so I power through without the power-ups. Just hoping to make the developers aware: those changes are noticed and not appreciated! Please put it back the way it was— with the airplanes hitting targets that actually matter and power-ups actually being created after you make a move that creates them. That’d be great! Thanks!
Dmh1955,
Fun yet oft frustrating
I love match-3 games such as these with a fun story that progresses as you win levels. This one is exceptionally fun as I am a true crime fanatic si the murder aspect is cool even if unrealistic. I love the characters, especially Mrs M who runs the B&B. But I have spent waaaay too much money on this already! As you progress, some of the levels are truly impossible with the number of moves provided. I understand that game-makers deserve to make a living so I am not expecting to routinely play for free. But after spending more than the price of an xbox game, I would expect the levels to be fair. Sometimes I’ll be frustrated enough to ride a level out for days and days, refusing to pay coins for 5 measly moves when it is obvious to me that at least 15 more moved are needed. Then, after holding out, all the stars align and I’ll win the level with 5+ moves to spare! I used to be a programmer so I know much of winning and losing is in the hands of the developers, it’s just frustrating when a level is obviously impossible. Kind of makes me want to move on. So, after spending what I believe is a fair amount, I will get to where I only play these types of games once a day. I’ll have several games like this progressing at the sane time so I always have something to play. So, I DO RECOMMEND, just be sure you are able to exercise self-control or you’ll find yourself in the poorhouse!
Kmoose96,
Nice game
Nice game except not enough boosters. Also I was on level 5 and the game all of a sudden sent me back to level without warning. It is hard enough to get boosters without going back another level and all of the boosters end up gone. The other problem is you earn a max of 150 points if you win but lose 900 points when you want to continue and so you points disappear quickly. Plus, I find that I get to one or two obstacles to get 2-4 times in a row and then run out of points. Was a fun game to play now it is just frustrating. I am about to say goodbye to what could be a fun and relaxing game. On level 924, Have been playing this game for 6 days. Refuse to put any more money into it. It is very frustrating to try and get 86 blue squares and 18 pink cameras with 29 moves and it takes to long to get more lives. Game has gone down hill since I started. I am on level 3985 for the last nine days and used multiple boosters without a win. It looks like a setup so you can’t win without spending a great deal of money. Hope this game is reset to be more fair without breaking the bank. How about a fair chance to win!!!
Attorneychick,
Fun, but…
I absolutely loved this game when I first started playing. I’m a fan of match 3 games and this one reeled me in with its story line, puns (sometimes corny) and clever writing. I’ve dropped some change on this game but I’m at the point that I won’t spend any $$ on it. I’m at level 1200+ and it’s obvious that some of the levels (not the “hard” or “super-hard”) are impossible in the number of moves provided. In fact, the “easy” levels are often more difficult that the “hard” levels. The planes were on target at the lower levels, but I’ve recently noticed that they strike targets that aren’t necessary to complete a level. They’re absolutely worthless now. Also, I’ve noticed that combos that should give a power up when combined often don’t now - that’s cheating btw. I don’t expect to get to play forever for free, so I’ll patiently wait out the time until my lives are restored and play other games that actually operate like they should. I don’t mind staying at the same level for days now, when I used to drop $ to get lives because there was actually a chance to advance. Fix these problems and I won’t mind spending the occasional $ here and there.
AlleyDee,
Your updates just aren’t worth it
This is the second time you have apologized because a “wonderful” new update sets people back into scenes they have played before but how about putting us back two cases!! Somehow getting 24 hours of free play is suppose to make us happy?!?!? Sure I’m on the same level I was but this time you have thrown me back 2 crimes. So now I have to work the puzzles again and yet I already know the story lines and who is guilty. We are not stupid. There is a way to update games without messing up YOUR customers game play. I don’t see what you think you are gaining except making “clients” which is what we are or maybe customers is the better word —ANGRY and Frustrated with your company.
I believe that most people who play games like these will search out other games by the same company. If you continue messing up people’s playing you will lose any future and probably current clients.
I really liked this game but since you have messed up my games twice now I don’t think I’ll be looking for any other games by your company.

Developer greed carries the day! Again!!
I really wanted to like this game! The concept is great and the graphics are awesome. However, as in most games on the net the developers greed ruins whatever fun you might have in the game. When you advance in the game the odds of you moving forward depends on one thing, and ONE thing only,........money!! And how much you’re willing to throw away! The “Match Three” becomes impossible to complete without throwing your money down the drain! Trust me, I’ve spent plenty on the game in order to complete the match three portion of said game. But it’s never enough for the greedy developers. They throw recorded ads into the mix and they make plenty off of advertising, but they still make it impossible to finish a game without spending prolifically! Save your money! We’re just making these guys rich and they’re laughing at us all the way to the bank. Another sad commentary on the times we live in!
Why? Why do these developers get to be so stinking greedy! I’m at level 208 and you CANNOT win unless you keep spending money! And I’ve spent over $100 trying but they just keep demanding more!! Do not waste your money!! I promise you will be wasting every single penny!!

Fun, but sometimes near impossible to complete
Download this game for the crime aspect of it, and it seemed fun to follow a storyline and relax playing an easy match three. The stories are pretty good. But there are points where you are on a roll and winning the match three games one after the other, and then you hit a wall. You use all your hints and your cheats and your credits and then you have nothing. I refuse to spend money on a game that I downloaded for fun and relaxation, so it literally takes me a week sometimes to complete a single puzzle. I am sure the programmers do this on purpose so you spend money, and then know that you’re getting so frustrated when you don’t, they actually give you a break so you “win” and advance on just to keep you hooked in hopes you dish out money at some point. I’ve deleted this game six times already because it’s been more stress than fun, yet I reinstall it because it’s so addictive. I have just spent nine days trying to complete one match three game and it’s going to be deleted again shortly. And probably reinstalled once I get over my frustration. You win, Rovio. You win.

Hitting a wall here...
Ok, so I’ve never loved this type of game, but this one was kinda fun. Until the levels became impossible out of no where. I’ve had this game for a while and I’m on level 267. I’ve managed to pass the previous levels by using power ups or paying 900 coins, but it’s taking forever to get through case four. Challenging is fine, but through the past cases, I had been doing okay and I just suddenly couldn’t pass the levels anymore. Especially when I go from one or two tries to 10 or 20 tries. It’s annoying to just hit a wall and fail constantly with basically one tile left to put carpet on or one more light bulb to collect, so I don’t really no what to do because I’m not going to pay for more power ups and this has just turned frustrating.
Oh and one last small thing, I just find it funny that Nora is supposed to be a right Sherlock Holmes and she just does not pay attention to the speech of other characters (like Mr Hunt basically said that Mrs Higgins was his wife and she just did not care) I just find that a little amusing
