East Side Story - A Carol Reed Mystery
As summer arrives, English private detective Carol Reed is asked by a neighbour to look into the discovery of a dead body that mysteriously disappears. Carol must discover scattered clues and interview suspects and helpful residents to get to the bottom of this stranger's death. What starts as a routine investigation quickly becomes something more as Carol uncovers broken alliances and a cult long thought to be inactive. Join Carol as she journeys through the beautiful city of Norrkoping, Sweden, as well as in homes, businesses, and abandoned buildings, all in search of answers.

Basically if you liked the previous three adventures, you’ll love this one too. It’s almost identical in every way, and the plot even feels similar to previous titles. There are some enhancements from the previous titles which make this the best release from MDNA Games to date.

I'm pleased to award East Side Story a solid Thumb Up, highly recommending it to any fan of a good story with interesting characters in an attractive and unusual locale.

The puzzles were generally easy enough to keep me moving, but the linearity did generate some frustration along the way, and the excessive backtracking, difficult navigation in some areas, lackluster story presentation and Carol’s subdued presence all resulted in an underwhelming experience. Regardless, I am still interested to see what happens with the Carol Reed series, as the developers have a novel and pretty graphical style and the location is certainly unique.

Randomly dropping in on locations in the hope that something relevant is going to happen is in the same boat. Carol's apartment is a case in point. But enough of the minuses.
