This is the best one out of the Unlocked family, but it still isn't great.
The theme has much more impact on the story and the game play here, it's original for a digital game.

Again, didn't like the fact that you need to call a US number or use a hint to get around it.

This was fairly substantial here.

The puzzles revolved around different science subjects like biology, chemistry, etc...There was no need to know any high school science from school (whew!) to solve these puzzles. Many were logic, deduction, pattern recognition, etc. We enjoyed all of the puzzles except for one which we thought could use more clarification with the clues. By now we've kind of noticed a trend to the ending of TEG games...My question is will we ever catch the bad guy? I guess we'll have to wait till the next episode to find out...
