What players say
Players describe a very short detective game with simple puzzle mechanics: you click on clues and fingerprints from a dossier, then pick the culprit from a list. It is Russian-language only, and the entire experience takes about half an hour. The little desk lamp you must toggle at the start of each case is a detail reviewers consistently note.
