Good morning Member

Good morning, members! Happy Monday! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend, and if it wasn’t so wonderful, don’t worry. I’m here today to bring a little sunshine and hopefully put a pep in your step. I discovered a very interesting detective mystery game called ‘June’s Journey’ that I think you all will love*. You get to step into the shoes of June Parker, a sharp and determined amateur detective, as she unravels the secrets behind her sister’s murder and uncovers long-buried family mysteries*… It’s interesting, fun, and it keeps your brain sharp!* Each chapter takes you deeper into the story, with beautifully designed scenes that reveal new clues and plot twists. If you want to give the game a try, you can play it for free here!* Be sure to let me know how you go, and if you enjoy the game as much as I do.

And since today’s all about a little fun and mystery, let’s keep that theme going with this question: If you could step into the shoes of any fictional detective for a day, who would you choose? Share your answer in the forum. I’d love to hear your picks, especially from all my fellow puzzle-solvers out there!

Now, let’s take care of last Friday’s Word Unscramble: C C R L E I

Here’s your new mystery for today: T R I P U D S

Pop your guesses into the forum! Solve it, and you’ll be included in tomorrow’s shout-out. Alright, dear GrayViners, let’s get to the good part. Here are today’s stories:
