Like the other Criminal Case games, this one has interesting stories and characters. Each case is separate but there is always a theme and a connection to the larger picture. This one has an ancestor of a modern character from the previous game, and the detectives rely on technologies of the Day. Game isn't expensive, either. I hope they keep making them.
It's a pretty fun game. I like the variety of mini game options. There seems to be no limit to the ads you can watch for free energy. My only complaint is that the "analyzing" mini games take way too long, and the only way to speed them up is real money. You can't even use in-game coins to speed it up. Some of the analyzing parts take 18 to 24 HOURS. Giving us a way to use coins instead of just real money would be helpful.
For the first two days of playing this, I never had an ad. Then suddenly, the ads pop up after every "crime scene investigation," which you have to play frequently because it's the only way to earn a star. It's far too much work, time spent waiting for energy to replenish and repetition for the game to be enjoyable.
