Everyone knows that the narratives attached to most hidden object games are usually superfluous, that they typically provide only the most basic framework necessary to create a shell of purpose for a player's exhaustive searching. Occasionally, though, the story actually works well within the context of the game, and Defenders of Law: The Rosendale File, a criminal investigation-themed HOG in which players select potential crime scenes to visit and spend their time searching for clues, is a prime example.
Portuguese game developer GAMEINVEST and Big Fish Games announced Tuesday the launch of Defenders of Law - The Rosendale File for the PC and Mac. The release of Defenders of Law launches the beginning of a three-game deal in which Big Fish Games has acquired the Defenders of Law IP and will publish the first edition online and in retail stores as well as two upcoming sequels through 2010.
