Read my full review on Adventure Game Hotspot!
Excerpt: "Sci-fi games usually aren’t my cup of tea, but Murder on Space Station 52
is a mystery game first and science fiction game second, so it doesn’t
bombard you with loads of alien lore or technical/scientific stuff. As
such, it succeeded in not only holding my interest, but actually making
it a lot of fun. Despite its extraterrestrial setting, it’s a pretty
straightforward, well-acted detective-style point-and-click
investigation combining fetch quests and problem solving and information
gathering through examination of hotspots and talking to possible
suspects. Most of the puzzles are quite easy, and the logic needed to be
applied is pretty much common sense, albeit with a couple of blatant
exceptions. It’s too bad there isn’t more actual detective work involved
in ultimately pinpointing the murderer in the bunch, but it
nevertheless succeeded in making a non-sci-fi gamer like me boldly go
where I never really liked to go before."
