Women's Murder Club: A Darker Shade of Grey

JohnBWomen's Murder Club: A Darker Shade of Grey (or, if you want to get really fancy and see the full title, James Patterson Women's Murder Club: A Darker Shade of Grey) is the latest installment in the mystery/hidden object adventure series started by Women's Murder Club: Death in Scarlet, both of which are based on the books and television program of the same name. Investigating the death of a young boy, you play the role of several different experts, each with a specialization and accompanying gameplay mode. Gather evidence and clues and piece things together in the forensics lab to solve the mystery!

womensmurderclub3.jpgMost of your time in Women's Murder Club: A Darker Shade of Grey will be spent playing as Detective Lindsay Boxer, an investigator with the San Francisco police department. You'll be the first on the scene to question suspects, gather information by talking to witnesses, collect evidence and take photographs for later analysis. These first-person scenarios are much like a hidden object game, though there's a good variety in the types of tasks you'll undertake. One scene has you searching for a way to turn off a fan, for example.

After some evidence has been gathered, it's back to the forensics lab where medical examiner Claire Washburn performs her magic. By completing simple mini-games you'll distill facts from the evidence gathered by Lindsay. For example, the first mini-game involves mixing various chemicals from three moving belts to determine the blood type of two samples taken from the crime scene.

Much of the game progresses in this manner, with Lindsay's hidden object scenes gathering data while the other women play supporting roles. You visit a number of locations to interview suspects and question locals who may have a connection with the deceased. The story unfolds in a rather linear manner, but the mystery is well-cooked, so you'll want to sink your teeth in for bite after bite of delicious (and intelligent) plot.

womensmurderclub4.jpgAnalysis: The first Women's Murder Club game took the familiar mystery/hidden object concept and made things a bit different with a more crime-focused slant. The sequel continues in the same vein and doesn't really change the formula beyond adding different mini-games and an entirely new plot. The puzzles in A Darker Shade of Grey are where things get interesting, as they're very well-thought-out and actually make you think, not just blindly go through the motions. This doesn't carry through to some of the mini-games, unfortunately, as most of them (especially the forensic games) are pointless busywork.

While the story is intriguing, I have to admit I wasn't really drawn into the experience as much as I was in the other game. Many of the characters seem stiff and unresponsive with dialogue that's almost completely void of flavor. Sometimes you might as well be reading from a textbook. The strength of a game like this is often in its writing, and here I can't help but feel it slightly missed the mark.

Despite its few writing flaws and less-than-stellar mini-games, the story and progression of events in Women's Murder Club: A Darker Shade of Grey make it worth a visit. Murder and mystery drench every scene, and playing as three different characters, each with her own unique gameplay mode, livens things up to make this hidden object adventure a tier above the rest.

I haven't played any of the previous games in the series, but I'm already stuck on the first scene.

I'm supposed to use a marker, it says, to draw up the remaining parts of the letters, but there is no marker in my inventory from the beginning, and I can't see any marker anywhere.

  • The highest score to reach is 540 points

  • Wrong answers, using hints, or skipping a puzzle will reduce your points

  • For each investigation, you will get 5 hints

@Connie
What do you mean with ... you can't get them? Did you have a look at the walkthrough for what you have to give in the searchfields for the computer?

This may sound like an odd question, but is there actually a scene by scene walkthrough? If so, I cannot seem to locate it on the page. Am I just a widget? You make a reference, "Did you have a look at the walkthrough for what you have to give in the searchfields for the computer?" and this is exactly where I am stuck. I cannot figure out the correct search terms. Thanks in advance for any and all help.

[Edit: The walkthrough is located on this page at the top of the comments section. It's in blue. All the scenes are in the spoilers. -Pam]

Hi!
Can anyone answer me a question concerning the content of the game? I must have overread it somehow. Who was it that killed Winston Adams? The guy in the grey hoodie....I know it wasn't the coach and I know it was the guy who also attacked Lindsay...but...who was it in the end? Did they explicitly say it was Lydell?

I need help, please, with Investigation 4. I have the key needed, but can't get it to open the trunk. I have clicked in every position imaginable, but still can't get it to be accepted to unlock the trunk. What am I doing wrong?

@jasdermom-invest. 4

Did you put back all other items before? This is the only thing, I can imagine right now

Okay, my fault. I couldn't get the key to work because I didn't have all the key parts. Found them and was able to open the trunk.

I see some other people have reported the same problem, but I'm stuck on Investigation Five because the article about the custodial job offer won't close. I can't seem to figure out how to get it off the screen. I thought maybe it was a glitch so I closed the game a couple of times but I'm still stuck.

Did anyone watch the short-lived TV series based on James Patterson's Women's Murder Club? It used to air on ABC last airing season. Angie Harmon (used to be ADA Abbie Carmichael on Law & Order the original) played Lindsay Boxer. I liked the show, I was sad to see it go.

I liked the mini games and the 3D art was pretty nice. But what was up with the story art? So ugly it hurt the eyes. And it was really annoying that you couldn't speed up the story dialog.

Seriously, who needs 5 minutes to read a single line of dialog?

Other then that. Short but satisfying.

Walkthrough is great but I'm having a problem with the part of Investigation 5 that takes place at the Sheriff's Office:

even though I present all the evidence to the Sheriff,

after he speaks I get "The end" and that's pretty much it, the game doesn't proceed to the other investigations. It immediately sends me to the main menu. Maybe there's something that affects the ending of this game?

i see many of the comments are about the same problem i am having. Investigation 5 will not let me close out the 1st microfiche and put in the second one. I have done what the walkthru said, have also closed the game thinking it was a cliche in the game. can someone please post the answer to this problem. it is on here several times with no resolution. thank u in advance someone smarter than me

Reply

I think there's something wrong with the game. It says 'The End' after investigation 5. I can't continue!
