Chronicles of Crime
Chronicles of Crime review
Chronicles of Crime is a really unique cooperative game that blends a physical board with a mobile app and a touch of VR. I've been playing it solo, but it's definitely a game that could be enjoyed with friends. The setup is pretty straightforward - you choose a scenario, launch the app, and then start investigating! You scan QR codes on locations, characters, and evidence to discover clues and uncover the mystery. The VR aspect is cool, but it's not essential to the game.
I really like the app. It's well-designed and easy to use, and it really adds to the experience. I also appreciate that the game comes with a tutorial scenario that helps you learn the basics before diving into the main cases.
One thing I found a bit frustrating was the lack of direction in the early stages of the game. I found myself getting stuck a few times and needing to look up hints online. It would be nice if the game provided more guidance to help players find the right clues and progress through the story.
Overall, I'd recommend Chronicles of Crime to anyone who loves crime mysteries, cooperative games, or just unique and engaging experiences. Just be prepared to spend some time with the app! And, if you're like me and have a bit of a hard time navigating mysteries without some guidance, don't be afraid to use hints or walkthroughs to help you along the way.
