Righteous Kill

Righteous Kill is a fantastic hidden object game based on the film with the same name in which you play a female detective in the recently-formed Vigilante Unit.

Your first case has to do with a husband who's suspected of trying to kill the people responsible for murdering his wife and daughter. As in any hidden object game, your goal is to find clues in various scenes by finding objects on a list before the time is up. If you get stuck, you can always use the UV light to reveal an item's location. In between the different scenes, there are different mini-games that involve searching for finger prints by dragging the mouse cursor over objects to apply dust to them so that the fingerprints show up, compare two side-by-side scenes to find differences, and put torn documents back together. As the number of items in the game is reduced, you'll quickly start to to see the same things, which is rather boring. Moreover, the game is pretty short and has nothing to offer to experienced hidden object gamers. The graphics are cool and the voice-over dialogue between the detective and her boss give a nice touch to the game. Although Righteous Kill is not very challenging, it may provide a few hours of entertainment to new players in this genre.
