There are some clever new things in this game, which I liked, and there were some not so nice things. -no map, and it really really needed one -music needs to be turned down real low -HO's are not fun, but are interactive -VO are good -Graphics are nice -hint button works well -bought the SE and played it in about 6 hours
Okay game
I recommend this game!

The Flux Family games are a nice change of pace. This one is a long game and toward the end I was beginning to wonder when it would end.
I recommend this game!

Finally a 5 star game. I really enjoyed this one and was sad when it was over. Hope we get more games like this one. -I bought the CE and it was worth it to get the bonus chapter -You really don't need a SG for this game, the hint is really good -Map, It's interactive. Yeah!!! -Story is excellent as well as graphics and music -Long game -Bonus chapter is a long one also, the designers didn't skimp on this feature -Mini games were typical. I had to skip several of them
There was only one thing I wasn't too happy with and that was the HO's were a little cluttered.
Can you uncover the truth before you become the next page in the killer’s diary?

Great game. Beautiful graphics and sound. HO's not too bad and mini games, for me, were hard. Bought the CE and had to use the SG a couple of times. Hints charge as normal.
Worth the price
I recommend this game!

This is a Gogii game and they always have great games. This one has some different play options and theme. After reading reviews I was expecting an excellent game but couldn't give it 5 stars. It's good, just not excellent. -you can choose how you play the game, I liked that -you can adjust sound for different types of play -the HO's have a spin on them, which I was looking forward to, but I was disappointed in how hard they hid the first round of objects. The rest of it was a very good. -bonus chapter is a little strange
Okay game
I recommend this game!

The game is a good CE. The only thing I didn't like was that the map, although interactive, didn't let you know what areas still needed attention. -graphics are beautiful -music, standard -mini games, I skipped a lot of them, skip button charges fast -HO's are interactive and not too bad -There are several features in the game I have not seen in others. Would have liked for them to be introduced early in the game.
Worth the time and money
I recommend this game!

Loved the game right until the end. I was glad I bought the CE because the way it ended you wanted to know more. But...the bonus play was about the shortest I've ever played and still wondered if there was more. -interactive map, love it, very helpful -HO's are not too bad -2 special items that stay with you that add a lot to the game -music is typical -graphics are good -hint system is real quick when skipping games
All in all a real good game
I recommend this game!

The game started out slow and I thought it was one to trash but as I played it became much better. -HO's can sometimes be messy but the hint button recharges quickly and if you don't want to do the HO you have another option. -Map is very useful, not interactive. And there is a little twist using the map -Journal with tasks and notes. I didn't find it necessary. -I bought the SE and didn't need the SG -Story line is nice
All in all a good game.
I recommend this game!

I played the first one and enjoyed, the second I trashed and this third one is okay. No HO's in this game which is nice. -not your usual HO game -no map -no journal -story is average -turn down the music
If you need a break from regular HO's then this will entertain you for a while.
I recommend this game!

Yep, there are no HO scenes in this game. Yeah!!! Can't remember the last one I played that did not have them. The game is good but the mini games really stumped me, but then I'm not real good at those anyway. -Bought the SE and didn't miss the bonus section -Didn't need a SG either -No map, but not needed in this game -Journal, but not needed -Music is the same thing over and over, turn it down -Real actors, that's a real nice change
