The game begins in Cleveland, though you will travel eventually. There have just been a series of horrific murders, the murderer is known as the Torso killer. His signature, so to speak, is to dismember the corpses and leave bits of the bodies around. The game story mixes a true-life murder case, a bit of conspiracy theory and a bit of mythology to create a very compelling story. The graphics are gorgeous, the music is wonderful and I like the actors in the game.
Game play and hints The basic navigation of the game takes a little practice to grow accustomed to.
If there is an arrow, click to move that direction or see a closeup of an object. I missed reading about this and was wondering why I wasn't able to get too far in the game. You'll need to remember to use this regularly, clues are not always in front of you. Use Jim's office for practicing getting around in the game. There are hidden items throughout the game, Jim's office has a few of them.
