This game is quite shocking and i cannot recommend it. It's interface is five years past its best by date and the play is wooden and linear. The puzzles are both too simple to engage the player but are monotonous because of the need to get every single piece of evidence in a scene. This means the player is clicking around every scene trying to find the tiny scrap of paper or key hidden under a cupboard. If you want this type of game go for Mystery of the Druids - not quite as frustrating and much more entertaining

Worse still are the parts where the player has to go through reams of evidence answering questions about it and what conclusions they draw from it. This is a chore and makes the game unplayable.

Avoid!
