The ‘Bone Breaker’ lurks silently around the ANU at night, leaving only the skeletal remains of their victims as evidence of their wicked deeds. The Police have recovered his latest victim, and they need your expertise in human skeletal analysis to identify the missing person and determine how they died. Only you can ‘read’ the bones to uncover the Bone Breaker’s actions! Help the good citizens of the ANU sleep soundly at night by solving this heinous crime.
