    I really wanted to like this, a proper deductive reasoning game where you investigate a single crime over a series of days. Feels similar to Scene Investigators, but isn't as good. Mr Investigator is unfortunately lacking in polish and filled with immersion-breaking bugs. It's by no means a terrible game, and maybe worth picking up if you've exhausted all the other options. However, I find it difficult to recommend…
