Private Investigative Services, est. 1978
About the Agency
The agency was founded on a simple principle that still hangs above the front desk: every case has a truth. It may be buried in a witness statement, misfiled in a police report or hiding in plain sight across a dinner table. The work is to find it and to be able to prove it.
Blackwood investigators work from the file outward. They read the evidence before they form a theory, they interview everyone who was there, and they submit findings only when the facts support them.
New recruits join as Probationary Investigators. They begin with an introductory assignment and earn their way through the ranks by closing cases with sound, well-supported findings.
A note on the cases
The agency, its history and its staff are invented. The cases are not. Each one is drawn from a real investigation, with names, places, dates and identifying details changed to protect the privacy of the people involved and their families. No character represents a real, identifiable person.
Some of these cases were never solved. Where that is so, the solution in the game is our own dramatized reconstruction, not a finding about anyone in the real case.
Blackwood Investigations is interactive entertainment. It is not a licensed investigation agency and cannot take on real matters. If you need help with a real situation, contact local law enforcement or a licensed professional.
