I love games like The Raven, which reminds me of Broken Sword sleeping dragon, which I loved as a kid. Like a good A.C.Doyle or Agatha Christie book, the game nails its mystery and builds up to the drama of the who done it. Anton Jacob Zellner is a great character. I want a friend like him. I hated that, towards the end, they introduced other playable characters, because it was too late by then to care about them. I just wanted to continue as the protagonist. The second half definitely faltered a bit.
Overall, the gameplay, soundtrack and environments helped to create a slow build up of the charm of the 1960s gentleman sleuth.
