Ok game. Was a little hard for me to follow the game story, maybe to many twists? Graphics were very good along with the voice acting. Used the hint button more than I usually do since I was not to sure what to do with some of the items I found. I used my free game on it since it expired the day I used it so can't complain to much since I didn't pay for it . It did keep me entertained for a time but I don't know just didn't float my boat I guess. Play the free trial game all the way through to see if you like it,
I like this game. As others said it seemed easy enough compared with the other games in this series. I do like the main female voice it is just pleasant. She does other games also so I tend to get the games she does just for that reason. Not sure why the negative reviews but I like the game with the story line good. I choose a 4 star because the bonus game was short and the main game seemed a little short. One does search for items but in this game not to many items need to be found and most are used right away. After the bonus game is finished one can look for the collectors items and morpheme items so that is a bonus. Try the Demo first if you like that you will like the rest I would think.
This is a good game. Good graphic's with ok voice actors even though they seemed to yell everything. The bonus game was good with some length to it but like the main game your playing a long then all of a sudden the end comes real quick. It felt like they had a set time and was cruising along than' oh no' no more time left and need to end the game quickly. Not sure why all the one stars. Main reason for not giving it a 5 star is the yelling and certain settings MS. Holmes voice gets on my nerves. Also the abrupt ending. A good mystery game that is not creepy or spooky with the correct setting so Ms. Holmes don't talk every 10 seconds
Played it before and still one of my favorites series. It is a improvement over the first one. One still searches around back and forth so if this bothers you this game is not for you. A longer game than most of the newer games with the bonus chapter very good with some length to it so one does get there money's worth if that concerns you. Story line is similar but different way of going through it. Voice actors are very good so is the graphic's . The animation is old school but not that much anyway. The funny part to me is some of the GQ poses the people do in the game. My sense of humor is different I guess. Very good search and seek type game. Try the free trial and if you like that this game will be for you.
Had this game and thought I paly again since I did like it before. Still a very good game with a different story line. One does go around finding items all over the place and this game it doesn't bother me . This type of game I expect to do that but if it bothers you you may not like this game then and try the other types of game Big Fish sells. This is the first in this series which one should play the three in order since they do make sense if done this way. A good adventure game with a little magic feel to it. The voice actress in the lead has done other games so she will sound familiar plus she does a good job and with a pleasant voice.
Good game. It was a short game which seems to be the growing trend. Graphics were one of the best I have seen in a game. The story is nothing new but a slight twist. Voice acting was good but the shortness still bothers me so a good sale or free game. If the game was longer the story line might have been more complete and more of those nice scene's could have been seen. First game I'm torn between the overall rating.
Very good game in this series. I played the others in this series years ago and was surprised when this came out so I tried the demo . Didn't take long to get hooked on this game. Same people in it with a little better graphics. Good story and length in this game. Not as long as the older ones but still a good game for your buck. No tunnel tram but that is ok since it was not needed really. Play the demo and if you like it you will like the rest of the game. Part of the game one does look around for a lot of items but no to bad to me. The collectable/bonus items were not easy on most with the bonus round collectable easy to find. A good adventurer game with a mystic feel to it.
One thing I find funny in these types of games is the main character goes around various other people places taking items from them as if the character has a kleptomaniac tendency. LOL But I guess in the moment it is a desperation time and use what one finds. Sorry I think about that while playing these types of games.

New York Mysteries: Secrets of the Mafia
Discover a story of mysterious kidnappings of both children and mafiosi.
Yea I know it is a old game but when they came out with the new one I checked to see if I missed one from this series. Some reason I did and this was the one. I did like the other games. A good game that was longer than most new Collector games with the bonus game so well worth the money spent. One does search for many items in this so if that bothers you this may not be for you. There are a large amount of scenes so one does go back and forth but the map makes it easier. Lot of puzzles also with couple I skip because it was getting to me even. Story line was good and like most older games not much talking in this game. Graphic's were a little dark but I figure that makes it harder to find things even though I found most fairly quick. If you like Mystery Adventure this is a good game.
I like this game . I did use the hint button more on this one but I was being lazy since one does look for many items. The items are used fairly quick so one does not have to many at once, I did have glitches couple times. One it did freeze up but once I restarted the game I never had that problem again, my computer? The other was I had two items that I found stuck on the screen which made me think I needed to use them. Once I quit and restarted the game these were gone and it never happened again. The game was not scary even though going through tunnels couple of screams and ghost popped up that woke me up a little. Some of the mini games were hard and I skipped them but others might have no problem. Story line was ok but if the game is interesting I tend to not care to much if it is good or not. The other game is as good and the bonus part had at the end a sneak peek at maybe the next game in this series . The bonus part was good not to long but the extra's were excellent and good selection which I think all Collector Editions should be like. They are twice as much. Try the demo and if you like it I think one will like the rest of the game.
I liked this game but not as good as the others in this series. Good length to the game and the bonus chapter was longer than others I played so one does get your moneys worth. There is a lot of items to search for but are used fairly quick. The game is in a Mall so brought back memories of my youth working in the mall. We had a ghost in the shoe stock room but I never seen or felt it. Even had one guy get scared and quit. Not to spooky. I don't get to many paranormal type games but do like this series for some reason. Hard to describe the game so try the demo and if you like it to me it was the same through out the game. Has a old time Egypt feel to it.
