Criminal Case: Pacific Bay 2.41

Detective based stories and games are extremely popular amongst the masses. There is an innate curiosity in human beings and there are a few things that capture the fantasy of humans as much as a crime that seems unsolvable. While crimes are gruesome and have a practical consequence in the real-world, they become a lot more bearable in films, TV series and games as there is no real repercussion of the crime in the virtual world. Detective games usually focus around gathering clues and then piecing the information together in order to catch the criminals.

The detective game has an expansive gameplay that puts your ability to catch conniving criminals to the test.
