摆出来挺好看的,很有破案的氛围 但是文字量很大,线索茫茫多,看着真辛苦,还有一堆老外的名字,看着看着我都忘了谁对谁,app一退出去拍两张照片就会自动退出,真的心塞 四人局,第一个案件玩了三十分钟,一个人跑去一边吃外卖,一个开始手机斗地主(我)

Very interesting gameplay and use of online database. This game gives a feel of being a real life detective. Final Scoring system is fantastic and questions findings of the investigation. Very difficult to get perfect score and find all evidences. Game requires lots of planning, reading and conversing, just like being a detective. So not recommended for passive players as people not involved fully may get bored. Not recommended for kids below the age of 12. Older players will enjoy it more. Intuitive skills will be a great asset to determine the way ahead in each lead. But logic is the only way out to close the lead. Good luck playing the great game.

Tried the free scenario. Story was ok but the game mechanics make you take a lot of time to get anything done. Add to that the inability to follow up on certain things you later decide might be useful and I say Chronicles of Crime is the better game of the two.
