The Malgrave Incident was a refreshingly old school adventure style game for the Wii. This style of game was very popular on the PC years back, but still has it’s charm today.
You’re a detective and you must solve a mystery, basic but still never seems to get old. I really enjoyed the simple scenes where you must locate all the hidden objects. It’s like a massive issue of Highlights at the dentist office. I always liked looking for all the hidden stuff, simple but fun.
There’s also a number of different logic puzzles that need to be solved along the way too. I really enjoyed them, some were a bit challenging but all were solvable. Nothing too crazy or complex.
This game is really best played with someone else. It’s good to bounce ideas off one another and the slow pace of the game works well for 2 people.
While this game hasn’t gotten the greatest of ratings online, I thought that it was a lot of fun to play. Granted it’s not Halo, but I think it’s a great game for casual gamers or for people who just like the old school simple point and click adventure game that is hard to come by these days.
