This game I bought after the trial ended. I just had to find out who was the other Tesla. It was a short game. Not worth spending for a CE for sure. It was going along well, until in the basement, the doppelganger Used electricity conducted through wood and stone. It could strike those things yes, but not travel through them. After that, I became annoyed with the game

I don't recommend this game.

I seem to remember playing this game, or one so much like it a number of years ago, that it could be a remake. Did someone just update an old game?
I didn't buy it then, and I won't buy it now.
If you're going to update an old game you could at least change the artwork so you have different people in the game, or change it enough so it doesn't look like something from a long time ago.

I don't recommend this game.

THE PARIS THEME HAS BEEN USED TOO MUCH IN HOPA GAMES

Paris is hosting the 1899 World Exposition but someone from the exposition seems to be deliberately creating havoc and chaos which is causing Parisians to flee the city in massive groves. Is this the work of a ...Show more

Completed Game approximately 6.0 hours
(including completion of all mini-games & CE Bonus Chapter)
20 Scene Locations +8 CE Bonus Chapter
Difficulty Range: Beginner-Intermediate

Collectibles/Morphing Objects:
There are 24 Collectible Ghost Cards and 24 Morphing Light bulbs that allow you to complete a Rotating Disc Rings puzzle upon completion. There is a pull-out tab that keeps track of all collectibles and morphs in each scene.

Gadget/Helper:
As a Detective, you have two Gadgets at your disposal, a Journal to collect Evidence which is done in the form of photos of the suspects or characters in question pertaining to the story. At the end of each chapter, you will go over the journal evidence by playing a repetitive mini-game where you drag the photos from the top of the page to the blank sentences to fill in the gaps of the story with an actual name. This EVIDENCE JOURNAL is used 5 times during the main game and once during the CE Bonus Chapter.

The second Gadget is an EYE DEDUCTION or conclusion of the evidence you have put together. This is done in the form of a repetitive and simplistic Hidden Object Scene where you are tasked with finding 4 or 5 listed objects in the scene that recreates the scene of the crime, followed by a reenactment video clip. This eye deduction gadget is used 5 times during the main game and 1 time during the CE Bonus Chapter.

Hidden Object Scenes:
There are 21 Hidden Object Scenes +6 in the CE Bonus Chapter, including the repetitive Hidden Object Scene associated with the Eye Deduction Gadget (used 5 times in the main game and 1 time in the CE Bonus Chapter) The HO scenes were just okay, some of them were actually kind of boring and the items were very easy to spot. There are Interactive List Finds, Keywords in Sentence Finds, Silhouetted Shape Finds, Descriptive Word Finds, Finding & Replacing Item Finds, and _+_=? Finds. The Eye Deduction Gadget HO is a very simplistic and repetitive HOP where you are tasked with finding 4 or 5 pieces of evidence in the scene to corroborate the story.

Mini-Games:
There are 30 Mini-Games +10 in the CE Bonus Chapter. Because there is an Evidence Journal Gadget, you will play a repetitive mini-game (5 times in the main game and 1 time in the CE Bonus Chapter) where you place photos of characters into the sentences of the journal logically. You can't go wrong with this game, you can basically drag the photos anywhere close to the correct sentence and it will be accepted, so you technically don't even need to read the sentences! Most of the mini-games are super easy to solve and nothing more than a time-filler, quicky-puzzle.

Bonus Chapter: (CE version only)
Detective Agatha has a ghostly case to solve in the Dark City when exhibits suddenly come to life! There are 10 Mini-Games and 6 Hidden Object Scenes which include the Evidence Journal Mini-Game and Eye Deduction Hidden Object Scene, Gadget scenario. You will continue searching for the final 7 Ghost Cards and 7 Morphing Light bulbs which allow you to play a Rotating Disc puzzle when completed.

Collector's Edition Extra's
9 Wallpapers, 7 Concept Art Pictures, 7 Screensavers, 8 Music Soundtracks, 29 Movie Video Cutscenes, 24 Achievements, 17 Replayable Hidden Object Scenes, 12 Replayable Mini-Games, 24 Collectible Ghost Cards, 24 Morphing Light bulbs, 8 Main Chapters +Bonus Chapter and a Built-In Strategy Guide.

The voice acting was awful. The artwork was just about average. The story... well, maybe it gets better as it goes along, but I'll never know. Even after giving it a second chance because other reviewers gave it high marks, I can't find anything that would entice me to spend even a nickle on this game.
As always, try before you buy.

I don't recommend this game.

Near the end of the game I have an item in my inventory with a plus sign on it (toolkit), but I cannot do anything with it. Can I get a refund?

I don't recommend this game.

Played the promo and thought it might be worth buying the full version. After I did it was just dragging and then over before I knew it. Just not worth buying

I don't recommend this game.
