Syndicate is an isometric real-time tactical game from Bullfrog Productions created in 1993 by Sean Cooper. It is the first title in the Syndicate series. An expansion pack, Syndicate: American Revolt, and a sequel, Syndicate Wars, have also been released. The original game and expansion pack were re-released together in 1996 as Syndicate Plus. The game puts the player in charge of a self-named corporation in a gritty near-future cyberpunk-style world. Game play involves ordering a four-person team of cyborg agents around cities displayed in a fixed-view isometric style, in pursuit of mission goals such as assassinating executives of a rival syndicate, rescuing captured allies, “persuading” civilians and scientists to join the player’s company or simply killing all enemy agents. As the player progresses through the game, they must manage the research and development of new weaponry and cyborg upgrades. The player has only limited funds, requiring taxation of the conquered territories while ensuring that they are not so over-taxed that they revolt against the player. The player begins the game with simple pistols, progressing through increasingly destructive weaponry that includes Uzis, miniguns, flamethrowers, sniper rifles, time bombs, lasers and the enormously destructive Gauss gun (a rocket launcher). In addition, the player can use items such as medikits to heal his agents, scanners to locate pedestrians/vehicles and the “Persuadatron” to brainwash the player’s …

When it comes to hidden object games, Masters of Mystery – Crime of Fashion is as unique as they come. Masters of Mystery – Crime of Fashion delves into the seedy world of crime scene investigation. In order to solve the high fashion homicide, you are required to find hidden tools, objects, and clues using a variety of hidden game techniques. To uncover the truth and find the murderer, you play the role of investigator, Miss Chase.
Miss Chase starts her new position like most people start a new job. Her cranky and uptight boss, Sergeant Cross, shows Miss Chase to her new office. The game begins by having Miss Chase clean up her office. In the process she has to find hidden objects like ammo, tape, a magnifying glass, and more.
This is where the game takes an interesting twist. Some of the objects you are required to find are added to your inventory. Once in the inventory, you are allowed to use the item to help you find more items. Personally, I like this feature because it makes Masters of Mystery – Crime of Fashion different from other hidden object games.
At different points in the game, you are thrown into a mini-game. One of the mini-games requires you to unscramble cut-out letters to reveal a hidden phrase. It is sort of like hangman without the penalties. It is not difficult, especially if you know a little about code breaking. Another one of the mini-games has you match fingerprints. Matching doesn’t sound hard, but you are given very little time to match the print. With fast searching and a good eye for matching fingerprints, you should be able to finish this mini-game in the extremely short time allotted.
