From The layout of the victim, it looks like we're dealing with a copycat, one who's managed to competently imitate the atmosphere of the television show in its modus operandi. The episodic nature and plotting of this murder/mystery adventure seem to back this up, and previous audio analysis of victim's conversation reveals proof of genuine actors from the series. However, execution was sometimes sloppy, evident from the pools of bad acting gathered around the victim's peripheral characters.
There were no visible signs of a struggle and it's estimated that it took less than a night before the victim was finishedoff. We have proof that our suspect was able to lead the victim willingly by the hand to an early exit and after digging around for clues, we can confirm that limited interaction with the environment was a major accelerant. Furthermore, dusting for prints on objects not relating to direct completion of puzzles also proved pointless. Initial glances showed probable cause for greater application but the suspect only needed to use basic methods of operation to finish off the victim and wipe the whole ordeal out of their memory after a very short while.

Surveying all the evidence, it's easy to see this is the work of someone attempting to gain notoriety on the back of more well-known cases. However, the execution does show signs of being somewhat intelligent and entertaining.On the basis of this we suggest bringing the quality of the license and the end product in for questioning.
