A Short and Interesting Story, April 25, 2011I found the game, 1 2 3, to be a short but interesting peice. I liked how it switched between two characters, the murderer himself and the lead officer on the case. It is a bit gruesome in the beginning, describing the crime that was done, with certain bits getting bitten off and describing a crazy man's crime.
The story is about a girl who had just gotten murdered, Riessa, a 21-year-old from the country, just moved into the city. She was killed and slightly mutilaited by some mad person. It switches to go into the officer whose on the case, talking to her colleagues Sergant Bob and Doctor Aaron, trying to put pieces of the puzzle together to solve the crime. It goes like this for most of the game, switching between the murderer and the officer on his trail.
The game can be a tad confusing, with some words or phrases not working when you think they will. This leads to bits where you really have to think what you're going to type in, with some synomyms not working, and the hints they give you being a bit misleading. I used the walkthrough for some parts of the game, mainly when you where the officer, those being the harder parts of the game.
In the end, I found this to be a very pleasing if not short game, with the story of Riessa's murder being just like any other crime story, just with the switching of narrators and of the gruesome murder.
