My Review

This hidden object game is a refreshing addition to the genre. The story is very well written, with believable characters and a great 1920's ambience. The gameplay blends almost seamlessly into the overall story - this includes not only the seek-and-find activities but also the 12 different mini-games that make sense in the context of the story and add to the fun. A new twist that this game adds is the ability to chain multiple items together for a combo bonus. The game is pretty clean, but I rated it Teen because there are references to drinking alcohol and some mildly suggestive themes (like the cabaret dancer and the promiscuity of certain suspects). However, the references are made verbally during the course of your investigation, and other than the cabaret dancer (who is clothed, though in a typically scanty outfit), nothing explicit or objectionable is depicted.
