I think if your looking for a game that makes you feel better and faster than the creators of it this game is not for you, but if you want a game to relax with that is a bit different from other match 3 games and you really enjoy a good murder mystery then I would at least give it a try, You earn enough stars you play a short hidden object game,which in my opinion is a bit difficult.But it does ...Show more

I can get bored with match three if each level is to long,but this is not it's short burst. I really enjoyed this game. I hope the creators make more like it. Show less

This is a great kid's game or for someone who just wants to relax and zone out for awhile.

Yes, this another of those dreaded tablet games, but this one has a bit more going for it:

This is a great kid's game or for someone who just wants to relax and zone out for awhile.

Yes, this another of those dreaded tablet games, but this one has a bit more going for it:

* Not as cheesy as most of the mobile games trying to be a pc game. The graphics were a bit better.

* There was actually a decent story line that kept me wanting to play.

* There's an option to create additional players which is not usually offered in these types of games.

* There are limited moves, but goals are achievable. Obviously this is too easy for some of the other adult reviewers here; but hey, sometimes I just like to breeze through levels without stressing out.

* There are lots of power-ups that blow up or shoot across the screen; and they're accompanied by fun sound effects. It got on my nerves after a while so I quit playing and moved on.

This really isn't a bad little game and I was shocked to find myself enjoying it. Show less

I recommend this game!

Typical move limited match 3 with a hidden object every so often to help solve the crime.

I like how some of the boards move every move or so.

Classic and fun if you like match 3.

This is the most frustrating match 3 game I've played in a while. I'm getting close to the end of this intriguing the story but the basic match 3 part of the game is making me yell nasty things at it.
Pro: each level can be replayed as often as you want without penalty

This is the most frustrating match 3 game I've played in a while. I'm getting close to the end of this intriguing the story but the basic match 3 part of the game is making me yell nasty things at it.
Pro: each level can be replayed as often as you want without penalty
Cons: (1) bonus pieces (bombs and such) are expensive and it takes a while to earn enough points; (2) as the game progresses, the player is faced with boards where the pieces revolve/move around between moves, pieces that keep freezing, and shorter available moves.
Just maddening that toughness of each level keeps me from enjoying the story. Show less

I recommend this game!

I liked the crime-solving scenario of playing the Match 3 levels to earn stars which allows you to Investigate the crime scene, but the Match 3 levels are still the same as all their other "sticky-sweet" games.

I liked the crime-solving scenario of playing the Match 3 levels to earn stars which allows you to Investigate the crime scene, but the Match 3 levels are still the same as all their other "sticky-sweet" games. The boards are the same, the features are the same, only the names of the bonuses have been changed to protect or fool the innocent players!

This is another Limited Moves M3 game that practically plays itself with so many large matches available that the board is crammed full of power-ups. Horizontal & Vertical Line busters, Bombs and Police lights that remove all of one element, Shifting Boards are all intersol features in all their M3 games.

To make it extra annoying, you can't make fast consecutive matches because you have to wait until all the tiles stop falling. After completing the level goals you have to wait forever, as you are forced to watch the computer play through all of the remaining moves. There is no challenge, it takes too long between moves and between levels, the only thing this match 3 games has that is remotely interesting is the crime related story. Show less

I don't recommend this game.

Hey ya'll!

I'm not going to go into how the music sounds or the quality of graphics or storyline because the game playing trumps talking about the usual.

There are sooooooo many 'bonuses' right from the beginning you don't have to play the game at all. And it didn't get any better or harder as you played the higher levels. In fact, it got worse. By worse, I mean the game played itself on one ...Show more

Hey ya'll!

I'm not going to go into how the music sounds or the quality of graphics or storyline because the game playing trumps talking about the usual.

There are sooooooo many 'bonuses' right from the beginning you don't have to play the game at all. And it didn't get any better or harder as you played the higher levels. In fact, it got worse. By worse, I mean the game played itself on one level. How? I activated ONE 'bonus' which activated another bonus, which created more bonuses, which were activated by all the other exploding bonuses. There were so many BAMS! and BOOMS! and KABLAMS! the game literally played itself out to the end of the level.

THAT is not a fun game for me.

So, I disliked it IMMENSELY. I don't give 1 star ratings because the words with it are 'hated' it and 'hate', to me, is a very very very harsh word so I gave it an overall 2 but it deserved no stars. I don't want a game that can play itself.

Try the demo if you have time to waste …. maybe it's your cup off tea.

I wouldn't recommend it to anyone and it is NOT a purchase for me.

Happy Gaming! Show less

The graphics are old. Ability to buy or acquire power ups are extremely poor. To buy one power up takes most of your tokens and leaves you with nothing. for the next level. level 148 is impossible to complete without additional power ups. Game doe not allow you to select when to use the purchased power ups which makes them useless when you need them the most. Boring story.

I don't recommend this game.
