“Gameplay was pretty fun and innovative for the series. The puzzles were manageable. My only gripe is I liked the writing/story in Crimes & Punishments better.”
“I liked it. Not outstandingly. But it's a good detective game. The deductions both make sense, and are sufficiently hard. The overarching story is serviceable. The puzzles could have been harder. But alas, this is a…”
