This is a fun little game, bit on the short side but defenitly a satisfying p&c adventure.

After the major dissapointment of Still Life 2, i popped in this game, expecting not to much.
It all started horribly with the game's framerate being beyond bad and pretty much making the game un-playable.
After i dug up a self-made patch from a polish website (www.artofmurder.yoyo.pl), all that was gone, and i could dive into what turned out to be a fun and exciting adventure.

I was glad to see it had the good old 3rd person look and noticed that the designers had put a lot of effort into the various areas you come across. Defenitly a game made by people who enjoy what they do.

The storyline is one of those serialkiller ones. But the way it was brought, kept me playing for hours at a time, wanting to know the whole story behind the murders.
The puzzles were also fun to solve, not to hard, and not to many weird ones. I also noticed that the in-game world had rules like our own has. You cant just pick up something from a museum and walk out the door with it, or carry large amounts of items.

The voice-acting was...again..not to good. Campy and stiff mostly, but decent enough if your used to it from playing quite a lot of other p&c games with the same issue. Quite the amount of little jokes to, with some of them bombing and others making me grin.

All in all a really fun adventure game with a good story, very nice visuals, and likeable characters.
The 2nd game is out already, with the 3rd in the series coming up soon. If you liked this, its obvious you should check out nr2 and 3 to.
