Compared to the first two mystery games, Deadline and The Witness, Suspect stacks up well against both of them, thanks to the complex storyline and many interesting characters. Similar to Deadline, you can replay the game many times and never reach the optimal ending. Suspect suffers from one problem that plagued Deadline as well: you need to witness a few critical events at the right time and place, but some of these events seem to be triggered quite randomly, or without sufficient clues. Fortunately, the intriguing plot and solid writing helps keep replaying Suspect less of a chore than it would otherwise be. If you like murder mystery games, Suspect still ranks as one of the very best. In terms of difficulty level, I would put it one notch above The Witness but not as hard as Deadline. Two thumbs up!
