This traditional point-and-click adventure game is a classical Who Dunnit. As inspector Jack Norm, you have to investigate which of the suspects might have a reason to want Walter Jones dead, talk to everybody, collect evidence or compare fingerprints. Your PPA (Personal Police Assistant), a kind of inventory/recording device, helps you during your inquiries. Sinking Island can be played in two modes: in real-time mode, it's a race against time. In adventure mode, you can go through each place at your own pace.

I won't lie? the only thing that kept me going was ,y respect to Benoit Sokal? because this thing hurts me both mentaly and physicaly/ Dont get me wrong? the story is... well... good?... But other aspects are just..... eh.....
A who dunnit adventure game. It's more gameplay focused compared to other adventure games- you have to find clues and ask lots of questions, then compare the evidence to solve the case. These mechanics are probably the best part of it. The dialogues don't flow very well and both voice acting and character models leave a lot to be desired, but the overall setting is interesting enough to keep the game going.
It's a decent crime-mystery game, but sadly, didn't really leave a strong impression on me - or any, for that matter, as I completely forgot I ever played this until recently, when I came across a video about it. Still, I wouldn't call it bad, just... boring. Recommended only for hardcore adventure fans.
