Independent: "Calling all would-be cat burglars. Here's your chance to try your hand at cracking copious safes without running the risk of arrest.
The premise of Safecracker is that a billionaire has popped his clogs, leaving his will ensconced inside one of 35 safes. You've been hired to open each one in a bid to find his riches. In lieu of a well-rounded plot, there are heaps of puzzles, with some exploration thrown in. It won't be every gamer's cup of tea, but it does what it says on the box."
Whether they just missed the point or simply terrify, Joystick Division looks at the all-time worst examples of video game box art.
lol at the guy all the way on the bottom. Looks like he's trying to take a dump.
And in the end, that's all Safecracker: The Ultimate Puzzle Adventure is: the lonely home of an eccentric billionaire, with puzzles and safes to unlock in every room. There's enough in that set-up for a few hours of genuine do-it-yourself puzzling. But if you're looking for anything other than that, you may just find Safecracker unsolvable.
