The eccentric yet stalwart residents of a former Colorado boomtown must investigate a series of mysterious disappearances & confront other strange occurrences that have plagued their humble town.
Description:
The year is 1907. The hectic boomtown days of Harthall Colorado's gold rush era have long since passed. Those who settled the town have considered themselves fortunate to become part of a thriving mining industry. Precious metals and arcane salts pulled from the mines created steady labor for the citizens. Ample tax revenue and competent leadership has provided a solid foundation for the fledgling community. However, in spite of their good fortunes odd occurrences began to plague the town three years ago. At first it was minor things, occasional brief tremors in the ground, leaves seeming to blow in absent wind but as the incidents became more and more frequent they became more disturbing. Crop growth began to develop in odd patterns. Eerie colored lights appeared in the night sky. Finally, just this week, a few townsfolk disappeared... and last night's mining shift hasn't returned.
