The Shakespearean Murder Mystery is a narrative-led point and click game presented through 6 Acts with over 2 hours of game play.
It was 6 months in the making and includes a fully scripted narrative exploring 3D objects & environments, character interactions and a host of mini games.
The game was commissioned by the Interactive Drama & Entertainment department of the BBC and was launched to support their Autumn 2005 TV Shakespeare season, ShakespeaRe-Told.
The game requires a simple log-in process due to the Act by Act game play, allowing players to revisit the game over several sittings.
The game is live on the BBC web site:
