Description
Something foul's afoot at Misanthrope Manor, and it's going to take a detective with a keen eye and a knack for suspicion to solve this mysterious puzzler. Help Inspector Parker solve the mystery of the manor, where seven potential suspects, weapons, motives, victims, pieces of evidence, and body-disposal methods must be sorted to solve the crime. Use logic and intuition to piece together the puzzle and solve the mystery. The full version features unlimited play; two game modes: Career and Puzzle; mysterious-sounding music and sound effects; eerie artwork; and a tutorial.
Review
Reminiscent of the classic board game Clue, Inspector Parker tests your powers of deduction. The game's clear interface is easy to navigate, and the excellent graphics and soundtrack perfectly create the atmosphere of a classic British whodunit. As the title character, you must examine the clues to determine the murder weapon, location, and killer. Since it's more of a puzzle than a full-blown detective simulation, Inspector Parker really makes you twist your brain, especially on the tougher levels. Even with the tutorial, the early levels are still challenging, and once you get up to speed, you can play against the clock. In spite of the time and level limitations, we still had a great time with Inspector Parker, and we think you will, too.
