An inexperienced FBI agent, a serial killer, a mysterious dagger and the jungles of Peru -- what do these have in common? Nickie finds out as she pounds the pavement with Special Agent Nicole Bonnet.

Thanks Becky, and Nickie for a balanced and fair review. thumbsup I enjoyed the game's linear style of play. I agree with you regarding the dialogue.

Excellent review Nickie, thanks to you and Becky.

I must say I prefer linear games as I then know I have other things to do before moving on! Non-linear I find myself roving around for ever lol thumbsup

I didn't see any mentioning of the bad translation in some parts, but I guess that's a given in east European games... that "otherwise" drove me crazy! razz

By the way -

You will encounter two puzzles where failure results in a “game over” when the character can die.

What is the second way to die? I only found one (the timed one), but what's the other one?

SirGraham, there is a place near the end of the game where you get 'game over' if you make the wrong choice.
Click to reveal..
The elevator control panel.

Its one of those doors that needs a thingy thing.

It's a great review and the game is really lovely but nothing too special, though!

Thanks Nickie for the review. I just finished this game and agree with a lot of what you said in it. One thing that I was pleasantly surprised about was that it was not a Still Life clone which I think a lot of people expected from the initial previews. I wouldn't mind seeing a sequel as I liked the main character.
