puzzle game mixed with old school fmv makes a nice campy combo

This won't be too long just the basics.
The puzzles were great, you gain hints to use along the way but I didn't find myself needing them until towards chapter 4 of 5 in the game. They are very well balanced and during the gameshow parts you can choose which puzzles you want to solve.
The storyline is interesting but a bit thin, they could have added more details and made the story longer.
The FMV was a very nice touch but it wasn't done well, the voices don't match up to the dialogue and there are jagged edges along the actors. I used to love FMV games and it was great that they added this to the game but I wish more production value had been put into it.
Overall if you like mysteries, old school FMV, or puzzles in general this would be a game you should get. I am glad that I played it. *However* this game did not merit a $40 price tag, it should have come out at $30, if you can buy it used, on sale, or wait until the price goes down I would recommend that because based on the short length and production value it shouldn't be a $40 game.
