Extremely entertaining and immersive, plus you don't even have to watch endless amounts of ads! The stories are interesting, and players can help create new stories by filling out a form. Very creative, as well, with phone calls and video footage. Tons of levels, each one being different and unique.

The storyboard is pretty cool and engaging; furthermore, the investigation system which you can change angles is pretty unique. The puzzles are intuitive to solve, while still being challenging, and the story itself is very fun to follow. There was relevance in every encounter, and it all tied in to the exciting climax. There are also plenty of levels to beat before you even finish the first season. This feels more like being a detective and finding clues, than being trapped with no hope of escape. Really makes your brain work and puts you right in the shoes of the main character.

Furthermore, the hairstyles are all different colors. Lots of different types of matching and finding clues to find the answers to the mysteries. Graphics are superb, the storyline is great, and it has you searching all the time. Rummaging through a bag, solving a code, and matching facial features are now becoming boring. Brain training at each crime scene The graphics, the scenes, the characters. Sorry to sound like a nerd.

The storyline is very good, and solving the cases is very challenging. The story is extremely awesome, the graphics, the way everything goes. You can have details described to you, and form your conclusion based on the evidence available. You should totally download it if you want the thrill of going around talking, investigating bodies and homes. At the beginning, the conclusion can be easily obtained by evidences that seem far-fetched.

There's something about the interactive story that makes it interesting, like going to your actual email and searching up an actual link in your browser; this adds a layer of mystery. The need to remember certain details can be challenging at times, and as there is a limited amount of backlogging, it does present a good challenge. No movie, no book, no TV show has ever had the ability to become as real as Duskwood. The videos, audio, pictures, and the way people text make it have a much more real feel to it. The time and effort Everbyte put into the development of this full-immersion environment really shows. Truly engaging and worth paying for video, photo, and phone call access.

The characters are fun, and it's like you're a detective looking at crime scenes for clues and interrogating suspects. The music is perfect and fitting for each scene. This is coming from a guy who bought all the expansions and played to completion. Unlike Hershel, Alfendi is a detective, solving crimes rather than puzzles. Starting from the transitions, graphics, everything is so good. Terrific artwork, music, and an engaging storyline.
