* My review: With the excellent story as the background to this mystery PC game, the game developers have done well to capture the atmosphere of the story, as well as provide plenty of interesting hidden object and puzzle games that suit the plot. But, it is a little on the sort side, so if you like to rush through HO games then this game won't last you very long. However, if you like to take your time, and enjoy the scenery, the mystery and adventure, and of course savour this classic mystery story in PC game form, then you will be sure to get more out of this game.
