Awesome Storyline. Carol Reed's 3rd in Series.
You literally stop to smell the roses in this Carol Reed Adventure Game and cannot help but enjoy the lovely scenery and music while playing the game.
Not for those who prefer fast-paced, however, I would recommend Gamers who enjoy simplistic beauty, will be happy to add to your Gaming Collection.
Carol Reed is a young woman who fell into sleuthing and opened her own agency in Norkopping, Switzerland. You are Carol and, although not a rocket scientist, you have a knack for solving puzzles and piecing together a mystery.
The artwork and photography is superb and the music mesmerizing. Wow! If Switzerland is as beautiful as the game portrays, I would love to visit!!!
I have read reviews that compare Carol Reed with Nancy Drew and that is like comparing apples to oranges. Carol Reed Mysteries stand alone.
I have listed the Carol Reed games and the years of their release for anyone who is interested:
Remedy - 2004
Hope Springs Eternal - 2005
Time Stand Still - 2006
East Side Story - 2007
The Color of Murder - 2008
Black Circle - A Carol Reed Mystery - 2009
Blue Madonna - 2011
Looking forward to another Carol Reed Mystery.
Enjoy! -Mama Mia-

What a Find!
I adore Carol Reed games! I have played all of them and they just keep getting better. I love the realism and recurring characters. I feel that I am getting a guided tour of a beautiful Swedish town.They are definitely not your typical games and that is what makes them so special. Adults who love reading mysteries would appreciate them the most, I think.

I want my money back
This game is awful! It makes no logical sense at all. The graphics are something from 1990's. The characters are tacky. Sure, it does have a few pretty scenes, but you are better off going to google and goodle images as they are nothing but ordinary pictures of ponds. The story line is dull and again, it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. I wish I could get my money back and I will never again buy a game with no trial version available.
