The latest installment in the series, Mystery Case Files: A Crime in Reflection, was released on November 21, 2023, and is the 26th game in the series.

Gameplay edit

Mystery Case Files: Huntsville marked the introduction of the hidden object game – a genre of casual game in which a player must locate a list of objects which are hidden among many other objects on the computer screen. Once a player has located all the listed hidden objects, they progress on to the next area of gameplay. In case a player is unable to find a required object, many hidden object games offer a finite number of hints.

Like all Mystery Case Files titles, Huntsville relies heavily on hidden object gameplay. Upon completing each hidden object puzzle, players return to their Crime Computer where they solve subsequent puzzles in order to gather evidence and help pinpoint the thief. A player is given a limited amount of time to complete each puzzle. If the player fails to successfully complete a puzzle in this time, they must begin again with an entirely new scenario.

Prime Suspects relies heavily on hidden object gameplay as well, but introduces a new device that will only work if the player finds batteries in any hidden object scene. The device enables the player to see through walls to find the hidden object. The player has to gather evidence in a limited amount of time and deduce which suspect is mostly likely to have stolen the Queen's Hope Diamond.

Ravenhearst allows the player to gather the missing pages of Emma's diary by relying heavily on hidden object scenes. Puzzles are introduced to the gameplay as players must solve them to unlock each door in the manor in order to access the locked rooms. At the end of the game, keys must be found all around the manor in order to free Emma's soul from the mansion.

Games edit

Huntsville (2005) edit

Mystery Case Files: Huntsville is the first installment in the Mystery Case Files franchise and was released in November 2005. The player takes the role of a master detective to solve a series of seemingly random crimes in the small town of Huntsville. The game features a number of locations to explore and introduced the Crime Computer which is still a main part of the series.[2][3] As the levels progressed, the detective discovers that the apprehended criminals are associated with a special organization called S.T.A.I.N. Every member of the organization has a trademark, all the members have a tattoo of a Skeleted Head tattooed at any part of their body or placed in items. All of them have different styles of Smulge such as Handwork Building, Scratch Folk, Thievery and more.

Following its release on November 18, 2005, Mystery Case Files: Huntsville broke all previous casual game sales records by over 100%, selling over $1 million worth of digitally distributed (downloaded) copies in under three months.[4] As a result, it moved into the top 10 sales positions on all major casual game distribution websites.[5]

It was initially released as an online game download for the PC and soon after for the Mac OS. In July 2006, Big Fish Games signed an agreement with Activision Value to distribute the game beginning in September 2006 at retail locations throughout the United States.[6]

Prime Suspects (2006) edit

Mystery Case Files: Prime Suspects is the second installment in the Mystery Case Files franchise and was released in April 2006. The player is tasked with investigating the disappearance of the Queen's Hope Diamond in Capital City. Mystery Case Files: Prime Suspects added items that players have to discover to unlock later levels (such as finding a battery to power a flashlight). Characters also became a more prominent part of the series with the investigation revolving around multiple characters with different persons.[7][8]

Gamezebo.com noted the game had good art, story and replayability, but that later levels were repetitive and difficulty did not increase.[9]

The Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences nominated Prime Suspects for "Downloadable Game of the Year" at the 10th Annual Interactive Achievement Awards.[10]

Ravenhearst (2006) edit

Mystery Case Files: Ravenhearst is the third installment in the Mystery Case Files franchise, was released in December 2006 and features an investigation centered on a mysterious manor located in England. Players find objects to unlock diary pieces to follow the life of Emma Ravenhearst, in the year 1894 in Blackpool. Through the diary entries, the player learns how Emma travelled from America to England to be a teacher, became involved with a man called Charles Dalimar, but refused his marriage proposal; Charles then began to secretly poison Emma and intercept her family's mail to keep her from leaving England. The final diary entry addresses the player directly and directs them to a locked door in the basement, behind which they find Emma's corpse in a coffin, with her soul being released now that the mystery of her disappearance is solved.

Mystery Case Files: Ravenhearst introduced elaborate door puzzles to the series that were similar to a Rube Goldberg-type puzzle. Mystery Case Files: Ravenhearst was re-released for the Nintendo DS in April 2013.[11][12][13][14] Ravenhearst was "the third-best-selling PC title in the United States for the week ending in the annual Black Friday shopping splurge" selling 100,000 copies in six weeks.[15]

Madame Fate (2007) edit

Mystery Case Files: Madame Fate is the fourth installment in the Mystery Case Files franchise and was released in November 2007. The player investigates Madame Fate's Carnival and the carnival workers to see which one of them causes the fortune teller's death at midnight. Madame Fate has equal suspicion – and contempt – towards the people who run other attractions at the carnival, but as the player investigates, they find that all of them are also doomed to die at midnight. As midnight strikes, just as Madame Fate is about to find out the player's fate, she is indeed killed by a malevolent spirit; the Queen then contacts the player to let them know it was the spirit of Charles from Ravenhearst Manor, furious that the player has released Emma's spirit.

Mystery Case Files: Madame Fate introduces more types of puzzles (including word puzzles and multiple crystal ball puzzles) while also changing the way a player can find items. Sometimes the player must combine two items on the screen, other times they must locate hidden areas to progress. The bulk of the game is still finding hidden objects, but there are a lot of other types of puzzles. The game also introduces morphing objects that players must find in each scene to unlock three secret areas that are located in the carnival. Mystery Case Files: Madame Fate also introduced hidden object scenes inside hidden object scenes into the gameplay.[16][17][18]

Return to Ravenhearst (2008) edit

Mystery Case Files: Return to Ravenhearst is the fifth installment in the Mystery Case Files franchise and was released on November 26, 2008, for Big Fish Games Game Club members whereas the public was able to download this game on November 27, 2008.[19] This game is the second installment in the Ravenhearst story arc.[20][21][22] After Madame Fate's death, the player returns to Ravenhearst Manor to solve Charles' mystery; they discover that the spirits of Rose, Emma's housekeeper, and Gwendolyn and Charlotte, Rose's children, are still trapped in the manor. The player is then subdued by Victor, Charles' still living son, who is responsible for keeping Charles's spirit alive using a machine in the basement. When the player tampers with the machine, it catches fire and burns the manor down, destroying Charles' spirit and reuniting the ghosts of Emma, Rose, and the two girls, with Victor escaping through a time machine back to 1895.

In addition to the hidden object scenes, which were characteristic for the first title of the Ravenhearst series, the publishers have "added a graphic adventure component that allows players to explore and interact with the world of Ravenhearst like never before."[23] It is now possible to move through the Ravenhearst manor, the surrounding estate and collected items interact with the environment. Puzzles and hidden object scenes are integrated into the different locations throughout the game. These scenes are tagged with frequent twinkles to attract the player's interest. Return to Ravenhearst is the first installment of the Mystery Case Files series where "haunting performances from live actors" are used.[24]
