The Bottom Line:
"Worth playing"
I had so much fun playing this game that I played through it in one go, taking about 10 hours. Just couldn't put it down.
Graphics are nice to look at. I had some framerate issues which really surprised me on a point-n-click adventure title. other than that the game worked fine. plenty of cutscenes. voice-work is also nice.
sometimes hotspots are a bit tough to find. had to go back to screens in the beginning cos I overlooked an item or two and got stuck shortly after. but as soon as you get sensitive for that sort of stuff you're fine.
the Wii version has some Wii specific puzzles you need to solve with motion controls, like turning a dial to crack a lock or move blocks around to get something through. you also have to crack a few codes. overall working the puzzles was a lot of fun. the only one that really drove me crazy was the last one with the roman numerals.
gameplay is pretty linear, the story and characters telling you where to go next.
loved the international traveling you have to do to solve this mystery. overall the game is a lot of fun. it reminded me of the Da Vinci Code storywise.
a solid adventure that every Wii-owner should play once.
