Cold Case Files is based on the television series of the same title. Although I don’t follow this series on TV, I quickly determined that “cold” cases are murder cases that have never been solved.
This is a first person point-and-click adventure game in which you assume the role of a particularly determined detective who has the latest technology at his fingertips. You go back through forgotten case files to solve murders that are months, even years old — crimes where the cleverness of the perpetrator, a lack of thorough investigative procedure, or the inability to use the latest forensic technology has allowed a criminal to go free.
The game is made up of six cases, and each takes less than an hour to solve. (A downloadable bonus case was available, but the webpage now appears to be inaccessible.) You can solve the cases in any order – all are available in the Main Menu. Each case opens with a cutscene, where the crime is briefly and effectively described. From there you are taken to the office of the Chief Investigator who discloses additional details. Interface icons then appear on the lower left of the screen. These give you access to text messages and also take you to your office, to the crime lab, and back to the Chief’s office.
