Crime O'clock

A masterfully artful hidden objects game with a loads of easter egg characters.

👍 Pro: Art is top notch.

👍 Pro: You unlock great tools along the way that makes the next basic find X person in Y frame investigation easier/solvable.

👍 Pro: The symbol challenge and special object finding challenges are the hardest and it requires you to know your way around the map.

👎 Con: The player's overall story is quite predictable and a little bit misleading as the in-game dialogue suggests you have some freedom of choice when in reality you're following a single path.

👎 Con: No checkpoints during missions, so you'd have redo the entire level if you quit it. Luckly this doesn't affect the optional investigation levels.

👎 Con: The difference between character positions in each frame can be quite inconsistent (Not including the portal levels) as from frame A to B can be short but B to C can be very long.

👎 Con: The (few) match object sections are more confusing, as I'd have to try every option in order to find the right answer.

👎 Con: There is no way you can fail this game as you aren't penalised for choosing the wrong object/option, even in the sections where it's implied that you have to complete Z section of the level fast.

There is no replaybility value for me once you complete everything but it was a good game while it lasted.

The game is great so far. The puzzle designs are really unique and natural. The clues are really blended well in the environment levels. The gameplay is quite simple where you will play a detective kind of game. You must unlock the real event that takes place in each scenario. The graphics of the game is nice and it really gives the suspense atmosphere. Overall, the game is really great. A different take in the crime-scene type of game. Greatly recommended.

The game seems good enough although I expect it'll get boring soon because of investigation being repetitive but it's still worth a shot if you like investigation games like criminal case! My biggest concern is that the game doesn't rotate if you rotate your phone and i have wired headphones so playing with wire on my right side is really unpleasant!!

I like this game alot. Below is my review on the game: 👍 Pros: puzzles quite entertaining. Based on the storyline and produce certain puzzles for the player to do. 👎 Cons: The storyline is a bit short and can be finished within a day. 🎨 Graphics: It is pixel type game with 2D display. Showing good graphic feature using unity creation game. I will like to see more DLC for this game. Or this is not come Tales of Neon Seas coz it is like one criminal with couples of cases to link up to the Main Criminal to be capture.
