I'm not sure why this game has a low rating. It's entertaining and enjoyable, there are plenty of collectibles (tokens, "personal stuff" which are morphs, and photos), the puzzles are fun, there are a good amount of HOPs...I'm not sure what else everyone wants.

The atmosphere is dark and dirty, so it fits right in with the theme of the game. We play a detective investigating a crime using the help of a long-time criminal who we put away years ago. If you love that gritty police detective feel, this game is for you.

Are there typos? Sure, as there are in every single game out there. I'm not sure why people get quite so upset about that when every game has them.

There are lots of tiny details and little things in each scene you can click on to get a reaction from the game, something I love in Domini Games. That adds to their attention to detail and interest in keeping players engaged.

Does this game reinvent the HOP game wheel? No, nor do most. It's a gritty, entertaining detective HOP. If you like that kind of thing, you'll like this game. If you don't like that kind of thing, this won't be your cup of tea.

I recommend the game as I love the feel, the number of HOPs, and a nice mystery. Show less

I recommend this game!

I rarely post a review. I LOVED this game. It kept my attention and the storyline and graphics were awesome. It was difficult finding the collectables in some scenes even with the guide. Other than that, this game is a win-win for me.

I recommend this game!

Not sure what everyone else has been playing, but this game is great! I haven't had any glitches and I've just finished playing the one hour demo.

Lovely graphics as always, fun gameplay, BUT I do agree that this new red cross when you make a mistake in HOGs isn't a welcome feature! Just unnecessary and a bit annoying.

As for the non-sensical tasks, who cares!? Just play the game and do the tasks in the order they've been made. and frankly, the placing of the two red valves is not a non-sensical task! You're allowed to place them in the right place when you actually need to! i.e when you need water. Not before when you don't need water. That to me is not non-sensical.

If you're a Domini fan, don't be put off by the bad reviews. I think players should just try for themselves and not be put off by others just because it didn't play well on their particular PC/laptop/etc, or because they think tasks are non-sensical. Everyone has their own opinion I guess. Show less

I recommend this game!

I liked the game and had a hard time not giving it a 5 star but it was a short game.
Only thing I didn't like was the red 'X' when not choosing the correct item. Was a little annoying after a while.
Other wise a typical Hidden object game where one looks for items to help finish the game. Not sure why others complain about this? Maybe this type of game is not for them.
I didn't have any glitches as others so not sure what is up with that . I do have a computer that is les than 8 months old so newer software maybe.
I did like the bonus chapter more than the regular game .
No extra Collector's Edition after the game so another reason for a 4 star.
Try the game first before you buy it . The vibes though the game is the same which might be the reason others didn't give it a high star rating. I go by if it entertained me or not.
Seems like most what to be really dazzled, maybe to picky. Show less

I'm enjoying this game. I usually buy/play almost all of Domini's games. I don't recall having tech issues with their games, but this one has them. Cannot purchase items with the tokens I earned...when I click on the token icon, I move into the "closet", but when I click to purchase an item, nothing happens. We pay more for CE games to get all these extra bonuses - They should all work!

If I had paid attention to some of the reviews I would have missed an enjoyable game. The story was not complicated, a welcome change to the chaos society finds itself today.

Kick back and enjoy.

MURDER, MAYHEM AND EXCITEMENT AWAIT YOU IN PITTSBURGH

fromHopefully, all the Michiganders will take a gander at all the University of Massachusetts banners on the buildings at Michigan University in the bonus chapter. Well at least they were not Ohio State nor were the campus chipmunks chomping on buckeyes.

REVIEW BASED UPON THE ENTIRE GAME
7 Chapters Plus a Bonus Chapter – Strategy Guide: 49 pages (My Time: 7 Hours)

STORY: Detective! Travel to the exciting, crime infested city of Pittsburgh to investigate a copycat killer out for revenge. Two years prior, you apprehended a serial killer, Roderick Alcala, a twisted psychopathic who photographed his victims to capture their emotions before he killed them. Now a newbie detective, Darby, has contacted you for help. Recent killings resemble those of Alcala. Someone is out to exact revenge against those who they feel helped this killer escape the death sentence. Locate this avenger and discover an unlikely motive.

To me, this is a long, decent game plagued with a few errors throughout. To me, this is not Domini’s best work; however, even Domini’s less-than-perfect fare is better than many developer’s best games. I love murder mysteries and whodunits and felt this was a good play. The stories behind both the main game and the bonus chapter are well-written. The game has a good pace throughout. The player will spend time saving one murder victim after another in this game. I feel the graphics are excellent in portraying a decaying urban sprawl. Domini always provides more game for the money and this one is no exception.

There are the standard three (3) collectibles, morphing personal items, photographs, and tokens to purchase items for a boudoir. I personally love the sidebar which indicates if there is an inventory item within a scene. I found many of these difficult to locate. Some are well-hidden within the scenes. I had to check the strategy guide to locate some of them.

TO ERROR IS HUMAN: This game was rushed into production. There are minor errors throughout this game. I have never seen this number of errors before from this developer. Nevertheless, they did not interfere with the enjoyment of this game – they are just oversights for the most part. First, there are sixty-one (61) tokens to collect not ninety-two (92). The beta had this number, and the sidebar still has that number listed. I found that I had sixteen (16) tokens remaining after I purchased everything for the boudoir. Perhaps that is not an error, but usually after everything is purchased, nothing remains.

However, I was happy to discover that instead of only fifteen (15) puzzles to replay (as indicated in the extras section at the beginning of the game) there are twenty-five (25). While searching through the extras section of the game, I found myself locked in the collectibles room and pressing the “X” did not exit me from that scene. I exited the game and restarted it, but it still did not fix that problem.

Although I am from Ohio and not really a University of Michigan fan, (boo!) I did get a chuckle in the bonus chapter that the pendants and signs on the buildings at “Michigan University” have the University of Massachusetts written on them instead! Well at least it is not Ohio State, nor did they have buckeyes on those trees in the pictures of the campus! But my “enquiring” mind would love to know why they changed it from one university to the other.

MECHANICS:

• Four (4) levels of play including a customized version.
• achievements.
• Collect 15 morphing personal items, and 15 photos.
• Collect 62 (not 92) tokens to exchange for items to place in a boudoir.
• 15 wallpapers along with concept art, music, and video sequences.
• 29 cutscenes from the game
• Replay 17 HOP scenes and 25 mini-games.

BONUS CHAPTER: It is another game. You are off to Michigan University (who has a penchant for University of Massachusetts pendants), to investigate a series of murders at a college campus. There is a killer on the loose, one who is seeking revenge for the actions of the mayor of the town. This is another great story despite the developer not quite certain if he is in Massachusetts or in Michigan. There are ten (10) mini-games and five (5) HOP scenes. Continue to collect the collectibles. It is a long chapter and well-worth the price of a collector’s edition.

HOP SCENES: There are seventeen (17) HOP scenes, all of which can be replayed at the end of the game. They vary in style and design. And although Domini is best-known for their puzzles, their HOP scenes are creatively designed. Included are the standard lists of items and silhouette. However, there are two of my favorites which are replacement scenes – searching for items and then using them within the scene to locate other items. There are also matching scenes, spot-the-difference scenes, and scenes with rebus clues. A thematic Match-3 game can be played instead of the scene.

X DOES NOT MARK THE SPOT! Returning in an encore performance are those dreaded “X”’s which appear if you click on the wrong item in a scene. Accompanying each huge X, is a dreadful sound indicating YOU ARE WRONG! Please Domini, make this an option in the menu setting. I, for one, absolutely hate seeing those X’s and listening to the nerve-wrenching sound accompanying them.

MINI-GAMES: There are thirty-one (31) mini-games, twenty-five (25) of which can be replayed at the end of the game. Most have the option to be played in an “easy” mode for a more casual experience, or in a “hard” mode providing more challenge for those who want it. The difficulty can be set in the menu at the beginning of the game; however, the difficulty can be changed while playing the game as well. There is also a Rube-Goldberg puzzle in the demo.

SPOILERS: HERE ARE SOME OF THE NUMEROUS PUZZLES AFTER THE DEMO: (E = Easy; H = Hard)

A. E/H. Sequence puzzle. Play melodies on a piano in the proper sequence as per a given guide. The easy version has 3 and the hard version has 5.
B. E/H. Lock puzzle. Use lock picks to open a lock. Move the picks into the proper positions to release the tumblers. The easy version has 4 tumblers and the hard has 6 tumblers.
C. E/H. Sliding tiles puzzle. Slide levers on a radio up-and-down, so each is positioned as per a given guide. In the hard version, moving one lever affects the others.
D. E/H. Maze puzzle. In the dark, move through a maze finding parts of a ladder to create the ladder to escape. The harder version has more ladder pieces to locate.
E. E/H. Sequence puzzle. Find the proper sequence to push pieces of an item into the center of the grid to restore it. The easy version has only 4 pieces while the hard version has 8.
F. E/H. Rope puzzle. Untangle rays of light so none cross each other. Hard version has more lights and is a larger tangled string.
BONUS CHAPTER:
G. Maze puzzle: Go to the dining room in the college by selecting the correct paths to get there.
H. E/H. Chess puzzle. Move a knight on a chess board to get a shield and a sword. As you move, enemies will try to defeat you. Maneuver the board so you do not get caught and be forced to restart.
I. Sequence puzzle. Deactivate a bomb. Cut the wires in sequential order. In the hard version you are timed with only 30 seconds. Show less

I recommend this game!
