Chronicles of Crime: Millennium 1900

Really fun, imaginative, and takes you back in time

Feel like the game should come with some red yarn, tacks, and a cork board! Really fun and engaging who dunnit series of mysteries to solve. Playing through at least a few more times to catch things missed on the first playthrough. Lots of fun!

We do a lot of escape rooms and puzzle games. This one was just not fun. The flow of gameplay and mechanism for figuring out clues was just terrible. Not great to play with others.

What this game is a present for my spouse, was actually rather excited to play it as it looked interesting. Once we developed into the tutorial mission we found it extremely clunky. The QR code scanning aspect seems superfluous and is slow and breaks the game flow. Additionally there’s a lot of things into it in the rules that aren’t clear (when looking at the trying to figure out what clues and what category is not immediately intuitive and if you pick wrong you were penalized for it: e.g. Choosing “books and magazines” when it should be “writing implements” do broken things count as “trash” or is it just there for flavor.A lot of what is used via the app could basically be accomplished by a “find adventure book” and has been done much better with other games with and without apps (such as time stories or mansions of madness)

My wife and I play many games and try to avoid playing app games. we have played the first 2 missions in this game and it give too many flashbacks to 80's text based games like Zork. If you fail to ask one person about some random card out of the 20+ on the table whether it is an item, a clue, or another person you are stuck. There is no help menu when you do get stuck, so you spend half the game trying to make a random connection you missed. if I could give it less than 1 star I would. I have had more fun in traffic accidents. My wife and I have put Chronicles of Crime and any app based game from lucky duck games on our never buy list. The idea is good, the app (with no help feature) is the major problem we will NEVER own another app driven game from lucky duck games. If I could get a refund for the game from lucky duck games we would do so.
