I love these detective type HOG games. This one was very good, the mystery had a 'Backdraft' vibe which was fun. However it has a lot of minigames. A lot. So many that I just started skipping them if I couldn't solve them in a minute. Especially near the end. It's also more convoluted than most of the HOGs I've played. I kept hoping to find one object, instead finding something entirely useless at that moment, which was a little frustrating. I made use of the Hint button.
However the bonus chapter has one of the most entertaining minigames I have ever played, so it was worth it for that.
The bonus chapter was also a good mystery. All in all, would recommend for mystery buffs. ^-^

The is an excellent game of those that enjoy this type of casual entertainment. The graphics and animations are out of the world from the usual standards. The puzzles were really unique and fun. Some quite challenging and felt pretty good when you solve them. The story is even pretty good. Really thought the maze in the bonus section was unique though, it wasn't just running thru a maze, clever use of the tools you have guys, kudos! The back arrow to go back to previous area was unique and is a button instead of the usual moving the cursor towards the bottom, which had me stumped for a bit till found it.
I give this tops as one of my favorites. Didn't get all the achievements, so might have to try again.
