Midnight Mysteries: Haunted Houdini
Description
In this installment of the Midnight Mysteries series, things really take on a magic context, as the ghost of Harry Houdini's widow Bess comes to you for help in reuniting her with that of her lost love. A plan to reunite via séance was ruined by the likely culprits associated with Houdini's death. In Midnight Mysteries: Haunted Houdini, the player acting as a paranormal investigator will find who is ultimately responsible. As before in the series, the story takes factual information about the life and death of Houdini and combines it with a murder mystery.
The player interface and game mechanics provide a hybrid approach of graphical adventure with on-screen movement touch points, puzzles and traditional hidden-object-style gameplay. Most hidden object search elements help key plot event sequences or yield needed items to assist the player for puzzle solution or story progression.
