Description: A scientist has gone missing, after claiming they made a groundbreaking discovery! Vanished from a locked office with only one exit this extraordinary case immediately grabs Detective Moore’s attention. A modern-day legend, Detective Thomas Moore has solved more cases than one can count, where others hit dead-ends, he gets to work. Some cases are more difficult than others, but he always comes through, but this time is different… Something seems off about this case, it is almost as if greater forces are in play…
Review: Have you ever wanted to become ‘Dick Tracy’ and take on a serious crime with the aim to solve it? If you are maybe ‘Curious Cases’ is the game for you. With its 50’s style private eye theme, this game certainly looks the part and even has a multiplayer option thrown in if you fancy solving crimes with a partner. At the games heart is a puzzle room style with 3 location/chapters in which to solve the crime. Each of the room’s puzzles are well thought out and even with a friend in tow, you will take a good few hours to get through this game. For just £5.19 it is well worth a look, but do yourself a favour and play this with a friend as it makes the game feel a whole lot better, but you can always play on your own.
