Overview
What ABG knows about this game
You will find yourself in the role of journalist John Fitzpatrick, in the cycle of events taking place in Chicago in 1929, when the "dry law" has not yet been repealed and the Great Depression has not yet begun. In a city where gangsters and bootleggers are often more powerful than politicians, and where corruption and smuggling flourish, young journalist Fitzpatrick makes a name for himself by investigating the underpinnings of apparently unremarkable crimes. Only logic and flair can help you. Ambiguous clues, vague hints, encrypted messages, random phrases, and sometimes blatant lies - all this will come across you during your investigation and will give you the key to exposing the villains. You have to plunge into the world of robberies and murders, get to the bottom of the truth in four main and one secret mission, each of which has its own plot (partly related to other missions), a unique set of characters and evidence. More than 50 unique locations are waiting for you, where you will visit during the game. For example, the Great Leader barbershop, the University of Chicago, the Chattanooga Arms weapons store and even Madame Zhu-Zhu's cheerful salon ?? ????????? ? ???? ?????????? ????? ??????????, ? ??????????? ???????, ???????????? ? ?????? 1929 ????, ????? «????? ?????» ??? ?? ???????, ? ??????? ????????? ??? ?? ????????.? ??????, ??? ????????? ? ????????? ????? ???????????, ??? ????????, ??? ?????????? ????????? ? ???????????, ??????? ????????? ????????? ?????? ???? ??? ?? ?????????????? ????????? ??? ????????????, ??????? ?? ?????? ?????? ??????? ?????????????????. ??? ????? ?????? ?????? ?????? ? ?????. ????????????? ?????????, ???????? ??????, ????????????? ????????, ????????? ?????, ? ?????? ? ?????? ???? – ??? ??? ?????????? ??? ?? ????? ????????????? ? ???? ???? ? ???????????? ???????. ??? ?????????, ???????????? ? ??? ?????????? ? ???????, ?????????? ?? ?????? ? ??????? ???????? ? ????? ????????? ??????, ?????? ?? ??????? ???????? ????? ???????
