Unsolved Crimes strikes me as being a really good game because of its consistent story, thrilling cut scenes and interesting cases! My own power of deduction, intuition and perception are trained. One has the feeling of solving the case on his or her own. A good mixture of being obvious and suspense!
Despite a ho-hum presentation and some odd design decisions, Unsolved Crimes is definitely one of the more solid adventure titles on the DS.
The strict linearity of the game’s thirteen cases means that you’ll have little reason to replay the game, but the clever logic puzzles and mini games give you plenty of reason to play through it at least once.
Fans of forensic analysis and a decent mystery yarn presented in starker, more realistic tones than other DS games will enjoy this title, and we hope it becomes a franchise like Phoenix Wright, hopefully returning with more grisly crimes and more interaction with suspects and witnesses.
Unsolved Crimes is not a terrible title, but it always feels lacking in some way across each aspect of the game.
Unsolved Crimes offers some original and interesting cases to be solved, but hardly manages to rise above its everlasting mediocrity. Luckily, Nintendo DS-owners have a lot of great alternatives at hand to actually have some fun solving crimes, like the beautifully crafted Professor Layton.
Fans of CSI-type games may find it makes the grade, but for everyone else, there’s just not enough here to warrant much of a look.
