 DO NOT BUY THIS GAME, Feb 3, 2023
I just purchased this game and installed it on my Powerbook. Much to my dismay, the game does not function properly. In several important areas of the game I get a black screen and have no ability to access the evidence reports. This makes the game completely unplayable. Instead of being able to return the game, I got a notice from Aspyr that they would give me another game title, like Zoo Tycoon, but I cannot get my money back. This is a complete ripoff, especially since Apple and Aspyr are aware of the problems and have not put warnings on the product so consumers can avoid spending 30 bucks on a useless game.

 Law and Order Fans Will Enjoy!, Jan 22, 2023
Unlike some of the other reviewers on this page, I not only had no problem running the game, but also greatly enjoyed it. (I was even able to run it on an old G3 Powerbook that technically didn't meet sys requirements.) I think the significant thing about this game's playability for me was that my wife (who never plays video games, but is a Law and Order fan) was quite addicted. The puzzles are not overly complicated, but the story is and it is the storyline that the gamemakers are relying on to draw you in. It has all the twists and false leads of a L&O; episode. Jerry's voice, may he rest in peace, urges you along. Yes, there is no gun slinging and blood and violence, and perhaps that is what most game players like today, but for fans of the show it gives you a worthwhile and entertaining interactive episode.

Don't buy this game, Sep 5, 2023
I have to agree with the other reviewers. I cannot get it to work on my brand new eMac.
C'mon, ASPYR, get this fixed.

Horrible game - The victim is you and the perp is Aspyr, Apr 15, 2023
This is about the worst piece of software that I have come across in recent times. It is reminiscent of the early days of software development when all manner of quirky, buggy junk used to make it onto the shelves of retailers. But that was 20 years ago. Since then software development has matured considerably and although there are bugs they don't impede the general purpose of the game - which is to challenge and entertain. Well there's no entertainment here. The graphics are dreadful. The sound is non-existent and there's no way to exit out of the game without having to reboot the computer. Something our Windows cousins are well accustomed too but is a very rare occurrence on the Mac these days with the release of OS/X. So how does a lame piece of rubbish like this get on the shelves of respectable ret retailers ? That's a good question. I guess that with all the software out there it is difficult to check every game out. Retailers probably look in the box figure out that there is a CD and a manual and assume everything is ok. It is ironic that a company that sells this type of software calls itself Aspire - misspelled ASPRY - it should more aptly call itself DSPYR for despair. All I think of is that in the end of all of this process you - the buyer - are the victim in this transaction if you buy this game and the perpetrator the company called ASPYR. Hopefully the good people in Law & Order will catch on to this con and throw ASPYR's arse in the clinker.

Don't Buy This Game, Feb 8, 2023
I've tried to get it to work on two different platforms, a G3 Macintosh running the lastest Jaguar and a G4 running the latest Panther. Aspyr technical support is absolutely no help. Don't buy this game until they fix the bugs (freeze-ups and virtually no sound). It's a $40 ripoff.
