Does not live up to the ad blurb

The Good
It plays, it works flawlessly, the cards are easy to read, but at the end of the day this is just a card game.

The Bad
I hate it when games are over-sold. I played through the first level and partway through the second. I was promised that:
- I would meet new characters (nope)
- I would try to figure out how the butler is involved in it all (nope)
- My emotions may run wild! (Erm, it's a card game, not going to happen.)
- There would 'never be a dull moment' because the game has 'super exciting levels'. (Well, the layouts are different but the game does not change.)

However the main disappointment was that after ninety minutes there was no sign of Detective Butler nor was there any sign of a crime.

The Bottom Line
Once again I played the Big Fish time limited full game download. This is a good solitaire game which will take hours to complete but, at the end of the day, it is the same as many other themed solitaire games.

After playing the game for the trial period would I buy it?
Probably not. There are many similar games out there that are free and this is nothing special.
