Film Noir with great atmosphere

The story just begins. Jack del Nero, our typical 30s detective, is given the task to catch a Dutiful Daughter in a precarious situation. Well, and this task is really just an accessory. Because the story evolves, these opening clips only. It is about murder, kidnapping, mafia and religious fanaticism in the 1930s. More than that, the story is so complex that it will be continued in a second part. Nevertheless, the first part is satisfactorily completed.

The splendid atmosphere with mostly very good speakers and really good jazzy background music makes you forget the hours. A good 20 hours or more can thus distribute its time. The gripping story and excellent graphics do the rest.

But there are also shadows. So the use of the inventory is badly solved and also walk or run can not our hero. So many changes of location are the puzzle. But really long way does not exist.
Some puzzles are also a bit too little background information fed (color lock, coded book) and some puzzles a bit monotonous (lockpicking). Really insoluble problems do not exist but. Ever is the story in the foreground.

++ Very good graphics
++ Very good music
++ Very good story
++ Much black humor
++> 20 hrs. Playtime

+ Part excellent speakers
+ Hotspots displayed

o partly good but also repetitive puzzles

- Poor inventory control
- Bad figure control
- Virtually no movies
- Now and then missing dialogues

However, the bad points are whining at a high level, because most wrong with this adventure. Finally a realitätsbezogeneres Adventure of Deadalic unlike Deponia, Harvey and Co.

So if you want to be transported back into the New York of the 30s, including economic recession, outbound Prohibition and Power Poker, which was warmly recommended this adventure.

I look forward to the second part.
