Fantastic game! I love genre mashups like this which is a mix of point-and-click segments and 3rd person shooter/platformer. It totally works in the context of a detective/cop theme. The art direction is fantastic and the dialogue will make you chuckle with all the bug-puns. I got stuck a couple times during the point-and-click segments, but once you do figure out a part you're stuck on, it's one of those "ah, that's clever!" kind of moments. Too bad they never released part 2 for PC. The whole game was released on DS, and I played it all the way through on that platform back in the day. I wanted to check out how the higher definition PC looked. It didn't disappoint! If you play this on PC, I highly recommend seeking out the DS version somehow too to finish the story.
