A well-intentioned adventure game
Ripley's Believe It or Not!: The Riddle of Master Lu is a point-and-click adventure game that follows the story of a famous explorer, Robert Ripley. This game brings in front of fans of the genre a classic and interesting story that shows the producers attention to detail. You have to solve a mystery that involves travelling in various exotic places. The plot also includes artifacts, intrigues full of suspense flavoured with mythological and historical references. The Riddle of Master Lu includes elements care define the adventure genre, such as puzzle-solving, based on your inventory of items. Also, your challenging missions imply conversations with various characters and performing investigations. The actors have their own personalities, and I've got fond of the main character especially because he amused me. The third dimensional environment has nice, elaborated and realistic graphics and I was amazed by the beautifully portrayed panoramas. Because of these qualities, this game offered me a believable experience. Now I will mention some flaws that are annoying sometimes. Well, the game crashes quite often, the labyrinths are quite long and you will have some problems with the controls, but you will get over them in no time. Try this game for its good intentions to cheer all the genre enthusiasts!
