The Art of Murder: Cards of Destiny is a flawed, but entertaining adventure game.
Cards of Destiny, if you can ignore what the characters are yammering on about, provides a decent ten to fifteen hours of adventuring, and the usual dosage of nice eye candy, but it's a step backwards from City's last AG effort, Tree of Life.
Unless you’re in desperate need of an old-school adventure with a serial killer theme, this is one crime you may want to leave unsolved.
It’s challenging and enjoyable puzzles can keep puzzle lovers happily scratching their noggins for hours. It’s just a shame that the lackluster graphics, sloppy subtitles, and annoying overacting puts a damper on this game and makes it one for hardcore point and click adventure fans only.
Naïve dialogues and twice-told detective storyline build the atmosphere of a bad “B-movie”. If you’re not stranded on a deserted island with this game then you had better pick some other adventure. [Issue#191]
It misses the full potential but turns out being enjoyable. Check it out if you're a fan of the genre. If you can overlook poor dialogue and mediocre voice acting, there is a fun adventure game to be found.
Adventure games are not inherently boring, and neither are murder mysteries, but all of the pointless procedure that this game throws at you will, at least as you play it, make you forget all of the enjoyment that you ever got out of either of those things.
