There’s a pretty clear main theme in this one: there are some murders in Wasacona, and the player has to figure out what happened. The killings (plural!) are, obviously, crimes, and the player is a detective solving the mystery. How sexual assault and suicide fit into all of this is less clear, but they could easily be part of a character’s backstory or events that happen on the side to the main murder mystery plot. Or, as I’ve seen before, the murder may not be a murder at all, but instead a suicide, so the perpetrator is the victim themself.
TLDR: murder mystery that may not be a murder at all
