Step into the shoes of an 18th century detective and uncover the mystery behind twelve strange deaths spanning 40 years, all somehow connected.
Unmask the true killers in this sprawling narrative and discover their devious motives.
Observe closely and reconstruct each scene of death. Your skills of deduction can identify each suspect, motive and murder weapon.
Reveal the true nature of the mysterious Golden Idol and those who covet it. Follow the journey of a cursed aristocratic family as you untangle a web of deceit and villainy in your hunt for the truth behind this dark conspiracy.
It's the kind of game where you're looking at gorgeous art and poking around and just getting that feeling of being a kid interacting with a pop-up book and lifting the flaps and finding secrets, and there's these cute mysteries, and there's all these threads and sometimes the motivations aren't really clear and you're not really sure exactly what's going on but it's a great time -- and then you deduce, largely by process of elimination, who the final killer must be...and then suddenly the entire design of the thing snaps into focus and the entire plan of the thing crystalizes. I laughed. I might have cried. The closest I can compare it to is Ghost Trick. It's that good. I played it over a long weekend, a page at a time in between some work, and I thoguht it was worth every penny. I hope they make so many more.
... this is THE game. You can only watch to solve the mystery, but everything is connected and you must pay a lot of attention to details and deductions.
Do you like exploring an environment, finding clues, examining evidence, interviewing suspects, and getting immersed in the story as an investigator? Well this game takes all that away and merely gives you a series of static scenes with retro graphics where you don't know anyone's names and click on objects to get clues. You then quite literally fill in the blanks by dragging words to the prompts and that's it. The scenarios tie together and tell a story but I lost interest pretty quickly after 4 or 5 scenarios.
No action, just logic. The kind of game you would play in DOS in junior high to work your logic and deduction skills, with none of the thrill of a video game. You don't move around, you don't really interact with anything, you are looking from the outside and are far removed from the story.
The game is pure logic and deduction, which means it can be really frustrating - as in you have to make some leaps and make some assumptions that sometimes made me shake my head.
The scenarios get more and more complicated, to the point where you have dozens and dozens of clues to sort through on your own and misleading you to make the wrong deduction. It's annoying flipping between Thinking Mode and Exploring Mode, so you're constantly going back and forth between modes just to make sense and organize the clues to solve it. I tried writing things down and that helped a bit, but it's pretty dull and lifeless and abstract. Maybe there is a way to have the Exploring mode and Thinking mode run simultaneously on two screens, but I'm not sure.
This game is probably really popular/liked because it's a new type of mystery game and has retro-style graphics, but I guess I'm old fashioned in that I like my Sherlock Holmes, Tex Murphy, Crimson Manor type games that have a more engaging interface, interesting characters and fun puzzles.
If you love logic and deduction but aren't keen on investigation and interactive gameplay, then you might like it.
