High quality at every level...fun, challenging, well made – New York Mysteries: Secrets of the Mafia Collector's Edition HD Review

Update. Still a great game but reducing to 4.5 stars for the following reasons: - many of the mini puzzles don't appear to have reset or match 3 options, so if you make a mistake, you have to skip. - some of the items in the HOP puzzles are very hard to locate (small items, dark scenes) - the HOPs are all the same...find one thing, then use it to find another. It gets a little repetitive. Not huge points for any of the above, but enough to deduct a half star. I am still playing the game, will revise if things go pear shaped..?? but for now, this game is five star in every aspect. Fundamentals? Check. Great graphics, voice overs, teleporting map that also shows collectibles and morphs, labeled inventory, hints, morphing and collectibles, long play, lots of different scenes, etc. Storyline? Check. Characters, storyline works, logic (knowing where to go, what to do next without having to rely on hints), being able to really get into the game. And strategy guide is inside the game, which is so nice. Puzzles and minigames? Check. Lots of variety and levels of challenge. Add long play time, and just loads of fun...it's a winner. Great jobs, Five BN devs! Definitely recommend this game, at sale or regular price. You won't be disappointed. Again--Great job, and I'm looking forward to playing more of these games. Hi to all the reviewers, and thanks for the heads up! ????
