Nancy Drew meets Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
Enter the world of Charlaine Harris’ Lily Bard Mysteries: The Body in Shakespeare Park, located in rural Arkansas in 1996. Lily Bard lives an unassuming life, safely tucked away from painful and haunting memories after being a victim of a brutal crime four years prior. She keeps to herself - her days filled with cleaning houses, running errands, and mastering karate. One sleepless night, Lily stumbles across a crime scene and someone’s trying to implicate her.
Can Lily solve the mystery of who killed Pardon Albee before the dark secrets of her past are brought to light?
This game contains mature themes exploring Lily’s Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and Sexual Assault.
Play as Lily Bard, piecing together clues from conversations and snooping through your clients’ homes to uncover motive and opportunity. You have the ultimate control over what happens to you. Chose wisely.
You witnessed a body being dumped in the park at night, using your garbage cart. Someone’s trying to involve you in this murder, whether you like it or not.
You’ve fought hard to keep your past a secret, to have a normal life again. You’ll do anything to keep your life quiet and boring in Shakespeare. No one can know about what happened in Memphis.
Adapted from #1 New York Times bestselling author Charlaine Harris’ first novel in the Lily Bard series, “Shakespeare’s Landlord,” dive deeper into the novel in this interactive mystery.
Explore familiar places, have in-depth conversations with characters and piece together the puzzle of who killed Pardon Albee.

I love the Lily Bard book series, not just the mysteries, but also how it deals with PTSD in women. I was lucky enough to see Shakespeare's Landlord in development and I was so happy to see Lily is being faithfully brought to life in the game. I think women (and smart men!) are going to love it!

It is long past time for games to appropriately tackle and sensitively address social issues. Shakespeare's Landlord takes on the heady issues of PTSD and sexual violence within a point and click mystery adventure game.
