November Game Day
Saturday 7th November 2026
11am - 10PM
'The Enigmatic End to
Madame Ennui'
It’s just not adding up… all the evidence points back to the hostel, but what's the motive? Well our suspect sure does have their choice of secret spaces and escape routes, but why here? And of all victims, why the French minister for admin related to the pedestrianisation of reclaimed industrial estates - Madame Ennui??
I must’ve missed something, so let’s go back to the facts:
Time of Incident
Around 11am-10pm (no way to narrow that down, that’s almost the full day!)
Location
At the Hostelling Scotland site in Oban on the Corran Esplanade (a see front view for our unsuspecting victim)
Items Found at the Scene
100+ games of various genres, difficulty and play styles
Suspects
A complete mix of people who all joined together on the same day, for the same reason. Some returning familiars, as well as a host of new faces, truly it could be anyone of any kind, it seems everyone was welcomed in
”The Big Score”
Well money couldn’t have been a motive, there weren’t any charges or fees to get involved at all, just a totally free experience of gaming
The Motive
Why would anyone try to put an end to Ennui? Wait a minute, it seems that’s it! All the guests at the event seemed to have had, at some point, a prolonged encounter with Ennui…
And what’s this? An insignia of some kind?? Was this an organised group of some kind? ‘RookHart Games’ huh… oh no, these markings show that this isn’t the first time they’ve done this, I see 30 scores! And it looks like Madame Ennui was far from their first victim. It reads - “Those fallen by the might of the RookHart Realm - ‘Cpt. Verveling’, ‘Lord. Avorriment’, ‘Dr. Macleamhachd’ ‘they even did away with the infamous grey scale artist ‘Die Langeweile’.
There’s only one way to finally solve this case, their next gathering seems to be THIS SATURDAY on NOVEMBER 7TH - same time, same place. Looks like I’ll have to blend into the group to find out what’s really at the hart of this, and they’re clearly professionals so I best bring [my] A-game to beat them at their own. I can’t go alone on this one, I’ll need back up - so looks like you’re gonna be joining me on this one Rookie…
