Penny Dreadfuls (Tm) Sweeney Todd

Sweeney Todd, a nice 'chap' working as a barber in the streets of 19th century London, who has been wrongly accused of many crimes, decided to pay the world back by killing as many people as he can, and with his girlfriend feed the citizens of London with the creamy pies, stuffed with meat of the killed people! Of course you don't see this in the game, so for those scared to see this there is no need for that. The game starts as you assist the police in finding miss Johanna's fiance Mark. Soon you are caught in a web of murders, who are know linked to each other, by one insane murderer. You have to follow a long trail of clues, in this case lots of items hidden in the streets of London, for which a couple of conditions need to be satisfied, like finding fire woods for a fireplace, to light up that corner so you can find the object. As for the main source of the game, the musical, that part isn't left behind so it's really not that far from it's source. You have lots of singing in the game, especially in the cut-scenes. The best thing that puts this game above other is the difficulty of the game, which can be chosen on the begging, and the game itself has a couple of demanding puzzles, where you have to think hard, so you don't lack of the excitement, because if you start guessing randomly you won't get far, actually it can reverse your progress. For those who are not acquainted with the musical you better sit down, and watch the cut-scenes so you have the whole picture. So get acquainted with the story of the mad barber who wanders the streets of London in the shadow of the night, who prepares to strike again, and use your brain and knowledge to trace his steps, find his mistakes, and put him behind bars once and for all.
