La Gran Josefina.
y el caso de la desaparición de la abuelita Rosita
An interactive Spanish detective mystery in ten episodes. You step into the shoes of Samuel, a nineteen-year-old looking for his first job — who somehow ends up assistant to the great private investigator Josefina Morina de la Piña. Together you'll search a town for a missing grandmother, working through every Spanish topic you've studied from KS3 to GCSE.
Pick your difficulty before each case: KS3 · Aprendiz or GCSE · Detective. Solve the puzzles, collect clues in your casebook, and follow the case to its end.

About the case
Story-led revision across every KS3 and GCSE topic.
Each episode is a self-contained scene with a clear language goal — a job advert to read, a phone call to interpret, an interview to survive, a house to search. Every puzzle is gated by a real Spanish task drawn from your sentence builders. You don't watch Spanish; you do Spanish, and the story rewards you when you get it right.
All ten episodes share a persistent casebook on the side of the screen. Every clue you solve gets logged. By the time you reach episode 10 you can flip back through your evidence to make the final accusation. The casebook also doubles as a revision summary for the whole curriculum — every piece of language you needed to know to crack the case is in there.
Episode 1 — El empleo misterioso — is the first to launch. The rest are on the way. Originally written and illustrated for class teaching; rebuilt here as an interactive experience.
