Since 2008, Polish developer City Interactive has been hard at work building up its Art of Murder adventure series. The games in the series blend a somewhat CSI-ish approach with the traditional point-and-click adventure and follow the investigations of sexy FBI agent, Nicole Bonnet. Serial killers are drawn to Agent Bonnet like flies to honey and in the latest Art of Murder title, Cards of Destiny, she faces off with her creepiest adversary yet, the illusive Card Man (Good villain-terrible nickname.)
The lives of serial killers, you know, is not exactly rosy: it's always on duty detective who spends his free time trying to put in jail these poor souls depraved, I just want to see make their plans to decrease the world population. But when is the fearless hero to be hounded by a sick mind, then it raises the stakes by launching the basis for a story potentially very attractive.
Mygamer writes: "Art of Murder: Cards of Destiny is a game that makes chasing after a vicious serial killer seem a little less exciting than shopping for groceries. It isn't that the murders aren't horrible, as evidenced by the three minute clip of a woman getting crushed to death in a garbage truck that plays every single time you boot the game up, and it isn't as if the playing card clues left for you by the killer aren't absolutely ready for a prime time cop show."
Art of Murder: Cards of Destiny is the third in the crime series from Polish developers City Interactive, as we once again follow intrepid FBI Agent Nicole Bonnet on a new case. This time it's a serial killer whose signature modus operandi is leaving a playing card at the scene of the crime. However, this case hits Nicole too close to home as the murderer constantly sends her strange packages, taunting her as she tries to get to the next potential victim before he does.
