Review

A strange and offbeat point-and-click adventure with a black and white film noir atmosphere - which should probably tip off the more eagle-eyed that this is actually the sequel to Nick Bounty's A Case Of The Crabs. Though this time, the graphics are 3-dimensional (in the style of the same company's somewhat more confusing Brain Hotel), plus the way you enter commands makes a bit more sense.

As with the previous instalment, the audio is tremendously atmospheric (from the moment "a dame walks in and asks you something totally bizarre"). The downside is that it takes ages to load (even the downloadable version is a massive 45 megabytes) and the first two real puzzles are bit complicated compared to everything else.


Controls

Mouse click to select items or menus (or click the "Use" symbol of an item in the inventory then drag it onto the main screen).

Tips

The game gives every item three options (usually "Look at/ Examine", "Take", and something else) for a reason - make sure you don't miss any.
