Community Insight:
This game is so stress free and is like real mureder casss sorry for spelling bye now have good day.
Great game really addictive so fun.
Ive been playing for years. We love solving the crimes. You can play it on a plane. Recommend for adults. Not small children.
Getting the starts can take a while but using them to solve the cases feels SOOO rewarding (36 stars per case if you wanna get them all before solving the murder).
Ive played this game since we were in elementary school, now Im in college. This game is fun and you dont need to pay money to have it. You should definitely play this game.
This game is literally one of our childhood games. We couldnt believe ourselves when we found it again we love crime things and this game is all about it we love it.
A very entertaining game and very interesting were you participate in the investigation. We really liked it.
This game is so good. Ive been p playing since it was just on Facebook.
Why do the case take 24 hours to unlock and the autopsys take 18 hours.
Ive used this app for a long time. Still enjoy it. Reasonable Everything. Good stories. Good puzzles. Good play and ability to gain additional playing time. We have nothing negative to report.
The game itself is teaching us of how to become a cop officer.
Very good graphic and enjoyable game.
Commercial last longer than the game play itself , but we like the game and story on each scene.
Ive played this games for many months and loved the mini games and bonus levels but we had to stop playing due to the disgusting spiders at each level. We would either cover it with our thumb while searching for the other objects but it got annoying seeing them and phobia triggering. But if spiders dont creep you out we recommend the game.
It would be nice if the game can read out loud the scenes.
Pourquoi a ton lobligation davoir des amis pour pouvoir continuer jouer alors que le jeu ne pourrait mme pas intresser les autres? Ceci est super nul.
We accidentally deleted the game and although we were signed in with apple when we redownloaded it and logged in our progress was no longer saved can you please fix this Im begging. We were on case 33 please help us.
Ive been playing this game for years! We love it so much that Im playing it for the second time. Im not a great game player so its nice that this game doesnt require the twitchie-skills of other games. We highly recommend this game if you like Hidden Pictures games.
5 stars This is the best hidden object game. We have played all 8 variations of the games. They are fun and challenging. Thank you again. Detective V.
Great game just its a little hard and takes too long to pass levels.
Oyun ok gzel ocukluktan beri oynarm.
This a great game us and our friends plays it.
Us a gustado un montn y siento que es un muy buen juego para los amantes de los juegos de crmenes y de investigacin.
Very addictive. We used to play it every-single-day 8yrs ago, somehow decided to stop. But recently it came to mind and we remember how much we thought it was cool. & much like before, we want to stay on it but get slowed down waiting on energy lol. But its so fun, storytelling is decent and the graphics are still timeless. Its always had great graphics, it still matches today.
Es un juego cool pero podra ser ms interesante , tipo este juego es viejo ya les toca actualizar por favor.
Its an amazing game and very fun to play! However it is very gory and has a few curse words (The grim butcher chapter especially) and we dont really like the energy concept but it is still very fun.
We love this game! We could play for hours, & that's saying alot, as we usually jump from game to game after a 45-minute time period. It's entertaining & a terrific time-passer. The best part of this game, which allows us to play uninterrupted, is that there's NO TIMER. YAY! We HATE TIMERS! We only wish the game moved faster & that there were more scenes to explore. So far, all we can explore is the basement, & the dirty bathroom. If the gamed moved faster, we would be exploring more areas for new clues. Other than that, this gae is a 5-star game.
Levels could be reached faster and stars could fill up faster.
We got a request to play this a few months ago & can't put it down. We like the avatars , hidden objects, & the fact you can enlarge each scene. There isn't anything we don't like about it! Ive been playing this game for years now and have never had any issues-now all these pop up videos very few minutes for stuff Ive got or dont want. Good bye.
Amazing start to a great series! Our friends vanished though and we cant get them back.
Pls play this game im not even joking. Ive been playing it for like seven hours and we cannot stop playing this game please please please buy this game. Please actually write it and please buy this game.
We love this game a lot it alot fun.
We really really really love this game. This game is so entertaining this game should be having an award. We dont know if we did or not but we really enjoy this game. Its very like we dont know if this is like true or not but we think its like very learning ish but we do recommend this game.
We definitely enjoyed the game. Im still playing it till this day. Been playing since 2016 we love it 5 x100.
This is the best game ive ever played it makes us so happy and estatic every time we play it makes us feel like im a kid all over again its the greatest game ever made thank u to everyone involved in the creation of this game u guys are really the GOATS.
We remember playing this game at age 7 and it was fun. We didnt mind the graphics and all was good. We just started playing again after a long time. Same cool experience. It gave us good attention skills, somehow.
Amazing game so many memories of our buddy and we playing this after school everyday.
This game is about detectives looking through crowded places for clues, and we love the minigames.
We can not zoom and pass the first opening level. How to pass the zoom trial ? Please help. For MACBOOK.
Us encanta es un excelente juego lo recomiendo al 100%.
We live this game gives a trill and got us hooked for hours.
Criminal case is the best game we have ever played we love it so much.Id give it six stars if we could. It is both fun and challenging and the graphics are super realistic . And there are so many levels. Highly recommended. Everyone on the planet is not ready for how fun this game is.its such a must play.
Been playing this since 2015. Ive tried playing other hidden object games but we didnt care for them.
We usually dont play games on our phone, but this game really gives us something to do when Im bored and its pretty fun! There are tons of challenges and murders to solve download this game for fun and relaxation for all our crime loving girlies.
This game is awesome we love solving the cases and finding the evidence makes us feel like a real detective and like Im solving a real case.
Im only giving you 5 because we love jones.
It has quite a few ads, and is one of those games you have to be patient with if you dont wanna delve cash into it. But we love it. Its a cheesy little investigator game, we love the nicheness of it; And to mention the character designs are phenomenal, love it.
This game is awesome if your bored and need something to do and it is really good for crime solving we would recommend.
Broo this game was our childhood game. We just downloaded this game again cuz im gettin bored playing other games like MC, CODM, MLBB, etc. And trust us, we didnt regret downloading this game again. We remember our childhood by playing this game. Thank God we played this game again.
We usually hate puzzle games but this one is the exception. Ive always been interested in forensics so we thought Id download this and we were NOT disappointed. The humor is very witty and charming for a game made in 2012. Although a lot of people are complaining about the energy system, its really not that hard to watch an ad for 20+ energy. Overall we love this game sssmm.
