Review
Women’s Murder Club: Death in Scarlet is a unique blend of seek and find, light adventure and puzzle games combined with a tale from America’s #1 storyteller, James Patterson. In this thrilling “page turner” of a game, players take on the roles of homicide detective Lindsay Boxer, medical examiner Claire Washburn, and ace crime reporter Cindy Thomas to solve a series of ghastly murders in San Francisco.
The following review written by one of the Software Informer contributors applies to version 2.2
Women´s Murder Club is a great hidden objects game where you will have to investigate murders´ scenes. At every stage you will have to find hidden objects and analyze them in order to check if the are a clue that will actually lead you toward the murderer. If you´re playing the game for the first time, we recommend you to enable the "Hints" option.
You carry with you an investigation docket, investigation cards and a map. The available locations will be marked with stickers, and as you go further in the game you will be able to unblock new scenes. The usual tasks to do at the crime scenes are to examine the victim´s face, legs and chest, marks in the body, finger prints, personal belongings and find victim´s id. With all these examinations you will get a detailed report of the crime and you are able to start searching for additional clues. You will also receive some help since you will have a list of the objects you may found at each scene.
The game has a lot of different cases that will be available as you start solving crimes.
As you can guess, all the investigator in this game are women. |
