As summer arrives, English private detective Carol Reed is asked by a neighbor to look into the discovery of a dead body that mysteriously disappears. Carol must discover Hidden Objects and interview suspects and helpful residents to get to the bottom of this stranger’s death. What starts as a routine investigation quickly becomes something more as Carol uncovers broken alliances and a cult long thought to be inactive in Black Circle: A Carol Reed Mystery.

This one's a cracker! happydance
Thanks, Ana.
"Hidden object scenes" is a rather misleading description, though. This isn't a hidden object game.

It's about time!

I discovered it on there at 6:30 am this morning. It's been already bought and downloaded. I may take some time out from Fallout 3 to play this one.

In addition to the GB walkthrough by MaG (and one by Len Green on JA+) there is a magnificent graphic walkthrough on the BigFish blog for any who maybe have additional troubles. smile
There is also a neat video and the demo. All these very nice additions no doubt account for the short delay in uploading the game happydance

Got home late last night, bought Black Circle and fired it up. Ahhhh, there's the apartment, and visited Stina, and another guy, still looking for the gardener, lol

It's like visiting an old friend, thanks BFG!

Heh marie! I played Dracula Origin and then Black Circle. Lovely quality game, with some beautiful locations. It did feel a little short this time though. What do the rest of you think?

AmunPtah, I've finished playing DO and thought the developers did a good job with it having played several other Dracula games it did know if this one would measure up. And yes it did, the puzzles where done very well and I liked the use of the inventory item (not too many silly ideas). The graphic where very well done and fit the game to a tee.a Now on to Black Circle.

I've got a bit more time left on the free demo and can't decide if I want to buy this one or not. I'm at the point where I can't go further at the Cotton Road location. Thus far, I've found the gameplay to be pokey, mainly because of the length and pace of conversations. Otherwise the game seems intriguing. I'd appreciate hearing from anyone who can compare it to other similar games as far as whether or not the "story" is worth pursuing. That is, how much gameplay can I expect from this one?
