Like in the original game you will beplaying as the woman detective Erica who is working in the Vigilante Unit. Newgame is a new case to be investigated. You see Erica and her team in a roomwith a dead body. There are a lot of items to be found and you need to followthe list of the evidences and find them all. The game-play is the same as inall hidden objects games: find the object and click it. Then it will be deletedfrom the list.

Among all these thingsyou can find a note. In the first scene it says:

“Once again I will cleanthe streets of filth and dirty acts.

If you look and use yourbrains you will understand the facts.

There is reason here forthis man to die, it is not for fun and games.

He is guilty of crimesbeyond compare and for that his death is no shame”.

And Erica understandsthat the killer blames the victim and this body can be the first in a very longchain of dead bodies. The killer left a note and wanted a police to find theweapon. What will be your first step? That is what Erica needs to do: figureout the aims of a murderer, understand the principle of the choosing thevictims and prevent future murders.

Each location brings youthe new set of items to be found and investigated. And a new note with the poemabout the reason the person was murdered. You will also visit a crimelaboratory where you will have to analyze the evidences and compare bullets andfingerprints, restore torn documents. Also each location has its lighted spotwhich can be zoomed in to find the hidden items. To search inside them you needto use some items from the inventory, such as flash light or key or a cottonswab. For example, in the China Town youwill have to look for such a place (it will be a manhole) and then use yourflash-light to see the objects hidden there. As soon as you collect all the objects the location will be zoomed outand becomes unavailable.

Though the maingame-play remains the same, the mini games are varying a lot. You will befinding the alike bullets in the ballistics lab, restore the DNA chain, comparethe shots from the camera and do many other things. You will definitely likespot the difference mini games. Here you will have to search between 4 picturesinstead of 2 and all of them are the part of one location but shots from thedifferent angles.
