Product Description
Imagine you are a rookie FBI agent in Art of Murder: FBI Confidential. Your first assignment is to solve a grisly series of murders that target prominent and wealthy members of the community. The killer's M.O. features a disturbing calling card: the apparently ritualistic removal of the victim's heart with an implement more suited to display in a museum than use for amateur dissection. The gruesome trail begins in New York City but the clues soon lead you to the distant Peruvian city of Cusco, the ancient seat of the Inca Empire on the border of the forbidding Amazon Jungle. Art of Murder has an exceptional combination of classic solutions with innovative ideas, such as the possibility of the heroine's death. This game is incredibly detailed with varied pre-rendered sceneries, enriched with background animation. You will find a gripping atmosphere, created through the combination of an extraordinary storyline, beautiful graphics, three-dimensional characters who move in a natural way and cast realistic shadows, 5000 dialogue lines, original music and realistic sound effects. Art of Murder is a point-and-click adventure that features a simple user-friendly interface coupled with a classic form of gameplay that has been optimized with the latest in cutting edge innovations.

I have totally loved this game and how quickly it was received. I would recommend it to everyone.
 Quite Boring Unorginal December 2, 2008
Art of Murder: FBI Confidential looks intriguing, but fails to entertain as a modern, 3rd person point-and-click game.br /The main character's voice acting is horrible, trying to be funny in spots where it more inappropriate and annoying than laughable. She is a wimpy female character with poor detective skills. As the player, I felt I knew more about crime scenes than her. She repeats herself to often, makes incoherent sentences, and states that a bag of drugs is a "very useful thing" and a bronze statue head is "irreplaceable equipment." Um...okaaay.br /The plot, involving ritualistic murders and the ancient Incan civilization has been used so many times that I found the story quite boring and uninteresting.br /The only points I did like about the game were the nice graphics and sound. Since this game is quite shorter than other games of its genre, that made it easier for me to finish it without giving up on ever finding out what happens to the characters. That being said, the ending was unsatisfying.br /br /I highly recommend a 3rd person game like Still Life or Black Mirror instead of this game. For something less macabre, try The Longest Journey or the Runaway games.
 Very decent game November 1, 2008
Overall, this game was pretty fun. It was a point and click game, which I like. The game had several different cool scenes to visit, so it had some variety. I also liked that you couldn't leave an area if you hadn't found all of the clues. One thing to keep in mind was that when saving/loading the game it was pretty slow, so just be patient. Good game overall.
Great game!!! October 11, 2008
This game was a lot of fun. The puzzles were logical br /and not to difficult. I hope they come up with a second one.
 Not much art October 11, 2008

OK, my first clue that this wasn't going to be a great game was that there is only one loading disk and the whole thing loaded in less than 2 minutes. There is not much detail, the puzzles are pretty easy, and there is not much that can be looked at. The only things that can be examined are the objects that are to be used. This makes deciding what you need to collect to solve a puzzle a "Duh". Navigation is good, and I didn't run into any glitches, just not what I consider a good challenging complex game.
