Keepsake (Windows)
Great Game
The Good
The Game Graphic are very beautiful. The Sound & the voice acting of the game is also superb.
The Game contains great backgrounds and stunning scenery. The story of the game itself is also very good. The game takes place in a Magical Academy and the player must search for the disappearance of all the Students & Teachers.
The story of the game has some great twists and turns.
The Bad
the game Install process is very slow as it contains over 10,000 files and about 1,000 folders.
The Bottom Line
Great game and a must play for Adventure Fans. It surely give a taste of old "Longest Journey".

Agatha Christie: And Then There Were None (Windows)
Very Good Game and looking forward for more Agatha Christie coming.
The Good
Very well conversion of the Novel into a great game. The Game keeps a tight grip on the player right from the beginning and it remains intact till the end.
The Sound Track is also awesome and arranges as per the game environment. The Graphics are also very nicely created. The Mansion and the surrounding as well as the side quests also makes this game real treat for the player.
The game Engine and the Graphics are also very well integrated with each other enabling the player to enjoy every moment of the game.
The Bad
Well, there is nothing much I didn't like about the game but the dialogue system could be much better giving the player chance to skip the sentences avoiding hearing the repeated narrations.
The Bottom Line
It's a very good game and a sure delight for Christie Fans. It's the same great story about 10 Strangers each is having a deep dark past which they wants to hide from everyone, but it is been revealed.
The game provides dark and creepy atmosphere and tense situations. If you have read the book or have seen the movie no matter because it provides different endings with great twists.
A sure delight for Suspense & Mystery Adventurers.

Blue Heat (Windows)
Good Game gone Bad in poor Distribution Channels
The Good
It's a very good game in which real actors have worked on a different story line.
The Game is more attractive to the Adult male gamers due to some strong sexual contents and language.
It has good graphics and soundtrack with a very good introductory video.
The Bad
Poor Distribution channel making it impossible to get into the hands of the Gamers.
The Bottom Line
Blue Heat Case of Cover Girls Murder is pretty rare to find now a days, due to poorly distribution channel used in the early days.
This game is shot simultaneously with a B-Grade film “Cover – Me”. The whole game is shot is FMV sequences, which was in the introductory stage at that time. This game is targeted towards Mature Audience as it contains some strong Sexual Scenes.
The entire game comes on 4 CDs and the installation process is also pretty simple and easy. An Autorun menu is also provided for guidance. The game is compatible with Windows 3.1, 95 and 98 but thanks to some 3rd party mods the game is now can be playable on Windows XP as well.
The main story revolves around Holly Jacobson a detective, who investigates the serial killings of L.A. Erotica Magazine Front Cover Models.
The game takes you to many different locations and also interactions with many different characters. The navigation in the game is also pretty simple and does not require very expert user. The main idea behind this game is to search different locations and collect various objects which can later be used during the game.
A PDA is provided for the assistance all the time where information about the finding can be stored and reviewed any time. After finding some clues and information the data is been checked for Suspects and his / her motivation and if done right it is accepted otherwise been declined.
Over all it is a good game but due to poor distribution it is not in access to everyone.
