This is [I]Grim Facade[/I] #5, which unfortunately suffers from the same problems the 4th entry had. The point-and-click adventuring is frustrating. The puzzles don't make much sense and you'll find yourself just clicking every item in your inventory on everything you see. Even then, you might get it wrong because the game often requires you to click in a very specific place. The story is ridiculous and a missed opportunity to teach about the real Leonardo da Vinci. Instead, we get a silly mish-mash of magical items and fact that I really did not appreciate. Even the hidden-object scenes are not very good, as they feature ambiguous items, e.g. two different brooms on the scene when only one is the "right" one. The only good thing I can say about this game is that it is quite long and has a lot of content. It's just not the best content.
