As with all Play First games I have tried, the art was wonderful and the game play generally good. I am rather tired of HO games, but I did mostly enjoy this one. Still found the odd, out of place or doesn't fit the scene items to be annoying and off-putting. Also, the times when I had to find the shattered items was not nearly as fun; at times those were just down right difficult. Using the "tools" was sometimes more difficult than it should have been. Blindly clicking around to find a fingerprint, for example, is not good game play. I liked that the mini games to find the culprit were varied, this kept it from getting stale too quickly. Over all, for a HO game, it is certainly above average and definitely has the mark of quality I expect from Play First games. Give this Review a KudosReport as Inappropriate
