Actually this... Wasn't that bad. After numerous H.O.G. experiences... I have to give credit where credit is due. This game: -> Let's you be the logical "sidekick" to the Detective. -> You better remember where sheet is or rely on Hints only. Tch. -> There is more dialogue in this game versus any other H.O.G...

A very fun simplistic puzzle game where you are a detective solving murders. It's mostly casual, although there are a few tricky parts. You click around to find items and occasionally have a "hidden object" minigame which is almost always super easy since you can just click around until most of it is solved. The actual puzzle element is good, though....
Very good HOG with voice acting, animated scenes, interesting minigames and a decent story. Only downsides are the lack of achievements and the non-functional indicators on the minimap that has no quick-travel.
Great story, on par with Dorian Grey Syndrome! Same issues with widescreen and readability of HO scenes. Still recommend!
