Verdict: Not Shovelware.
What I Say:
In this Hidden Object Puzzle Adventure, you are a former police office who is now a private detective who is on the trail of a mysterious serial killer. The overall structure of this game is fairly similar to others in the genre from Artifex Mundi with the minor addition of a few tweaks to the point and click mechanic.
As per other games of this genre, there are bonus hidden objects to be found. Usually these are related to the story in these games, however in this game they are quite bizarre; smoking pipes, floppy disks and hats are waiting to be found on many of the screens.
What They Say:
They say a good story begins with an earthquake and works its way up to a climax.
The story of Arthur Christie begins with a painful wake up in a dark basement with an unknown murder victim and memory gaps larger than bullet holes. A moment later the building is surrounded by howling police sirens. And all this before the sun even reached noon.
The day began lousy and chances for improvement are slim – so now he has to start his own investigation and prove his innocence. For this detective Christie will need to recreate his lost memories and immerse himself in the dark reality of a serial killer called The Executioner.
