XD (we just can't make a simple challenge it seems). So you pick a person, a weapon and a room. Then you can pixel a scene of the crime. Or a 2D game mockup of the crime. Maybe sprites of these. Anything at all, be creative. So long as WHO with WHAT and WHERE is clearly shown. This is a screen from the SNES version of the game for reference. But note that a mockup is not required the scene could have the person and weapon in the room. Realistic is good too.

OKay, I have a couple questions...
- Does it have to be anything like the image shown, or can it be anything as long as it tells who, where, what?
- Do we have to have to use the names that are in the real game or can we make up our own? (Same thing with murder weapons and places?)
- Is there a canvas size restriction?
- Animation allowed?
Edit:
- Oh, and can you have deaths w/o killers? lol
Edit 2:
- And can I have multiple scenarios in one animation? lol

I chose Col. Mustard with the knife in the kitchen with the following idea.. Col. Mustard, is a mustard pot, using the knife to kill a ketchup bottle. Brill or what, eh? Eh? Ok, so it's naff and cheesy, but oh well I'm sticking with it :) WIP:
