Casebook: Episode 0 - The Missing Urn This is a free installment of the Casebook series. It serves as a demo but instead of offering a cut down "full" episode it tells its own story: Your partner Detective Burton helps his Aunt to find the missing urn of her dead husband.

The main gameplay aspect is the searching of crime scenes and the photographing of clues. These photographs are evaluated in the mobile crime bus. Most of these evaluations are carried out with mini games.

All protagonists and the crime scenes are filmed in full motion video. In comparison to the other episodes this games has just one crime scene and about a quarter of the playtime. [source:mobygames]
