About The Game
The Roottrees are Dead is a gripping detective adventure game set in 1998 where players investigate complex family dynamics following a tragic private jet crash that killed the wealthy Roottree sisters and their parents. As an investigator armed with a dial-up modem, you must piece together the true family tree of the billion-dollar Roottree corporation by analyzing photographs, books, articles, and various clues. The game features a nostalgic late 90s computer interface, complete with hand-drawn illustrations by board game artist Henning Ludvigsen and a 3D living room perspective that ties all the puzzle pieces together.
Originally a browser game from Global Game Jam 2023, this enhanced Steam version includes quality of life improvements, remastered audio with voiced cinematics, and a bonus chapter, The Roottrees are Dead, revealing new scandals within America’s largest maple candy empire. Players must make logical decisions to correctly place family members on the tree, with puzzles becoming increasingly difficult as the options become fewer.
