Lucy lives in fear of the nearby forest. She can’t sleep at night as she hears the eerie, echoing roars in the distance. People go missing, and that’s a fact of life. This time, though, Lucy is finally old enough to investigate for herself. At least, she thinks so, anyway. Many of the puzzles involve music, and Lucy learning to sing might be the thing that saves her life. Besides investigating, she’ll be able to meet and interact with a large cast of people (and animals) to help and hinder her progress. She can even play games with the other children and dodge a mean-spirited cat.
