From the same people who made Restaurant Empire, which I love, I was happy to see they'd done other games. I downloaded both this one and the Marine Park Empire games and I'm afraid, after trying to play both of them, I had to stop, dissatisfied.
The game simply isn't as intuitive as it could be, the controls are difficult to navigate, the game doesn't allow you to do things you need to do and won't give any explanation as to why.
I couldn't get past the tutorial because of the lack of information - working on the goals and the game wouldn't allow me to complete the final goal, though I don't know why. If the final goal wasn't meant to be completed in order to teach me "something" later, at least they could have shared that information.
All this being said, I wouldn't recommend a download of this game or Marine Park Empire, but I DO recommend Restaurant Empire. If the makers of this game would fix it so it's easier to play with better controls and information, I'd give it another chance.
I don't recommend this game.

I love mysteries and this would be a good one were it not for the slow movement in the game. Whenever Inspector Norm has to walk anywhere, it's as though he's walking the last mile...
Also, I missed some stuff out of sequence and it became, "Too bad, so sad, you don't get to solve the mandate". I considered starting over to resolve this but decided not to, since it would mean another several hours of "We're walking, we're walking, we're walking..."
I don't recommend this game unless there is absolutely nothing else going on in your life.
I don't recommend this game.
