“It’s a fiendishly good idea, what? I mean there you are, immersed in this crime thriller (presented in the manner of your common or garden point-and-click adventure), having a good time, meeting people, finding clues, watching a story unfold, and all the time you’re being taught Spanish. I was thoroughly impressed.”
