Club SAI and The Painscreek Killings

This is my first written fanfic ever. It’s based on a video game I have never played, but have seen let’s plays of, including an intriguing video essay. Even if I never saw those videos, I probably never would have played it myself because by its very nature you can only play a murder mystery video game once.

Here is the game rewritten as a mystery that a group of teenagers help the main character from the game solve. Spoilers ahead if you plan on playing it. However, I also changed a few other things, namely the fates of a couple of game characters. In a way, you could view it as an unconventional walk-through, but rewritten in a way that things make more sense, like locations of keys and certain and fewer characters keeping diaries, for instance, and places like the old sheriff’s office being skipped over entirely.

Oh, and certain puzzles, like the questionable darts puzzle, I’ve eliminated.
