Emerald City Confidential Game Review
If there’s one thing you’ll remember after hearing the words Emerald City, then certainly it’s going to be The Wizard of Oz. Bringing back the magic of this place from years ago since Dorothy and her adventure, Emerald City Confidential now follows the plotline of post-war Oz, a thriving country not only in terms of culture and commerce, except also of greed and corruption too
The story of the game starts with a seemingly simple case given to a private investigator named Petra. At first, it seems as if our heroine takes on these dangerous tasks just to make ends meet, except in reality, her free time is mostly spent in search for her own missing brother. Anyway, her current case isn't to be taken lightly either since as the case thickens, she finds herself a key component in the middle of an impending war, except on the positive side, puts her nearer the goal of finding her long lost brother as well
Emerald City Confidential is an adventure type game where you take a third person view of Petra while you investigate people, places and clues helping you achieve your goals in-game. Much like any other detective-type adventure, most of your time playing will involve talking to various individuals living in the world of Oz. You’ll see many of the familiar characters in the original story, like Scarecrow, Lion and Tin Man, who are another playing main roles in the game. Included in the list are other lovable characters too like Glenda the good witch and Toto, Dorothy’s lovable dog
The setting is so much different from the Oz that we used to know though, since in this game, Oz is simply a very dark place. Scarecrow is already the former King, Lion is an opportunistic lawyer, and Tin Man is simply a heartbroken governor. I know that this is going to be a big twist from the happy and wonderful place depicted in the stories, except nevertheless, it now becomes a perfect setting for a large-scale mystery. Some of the scenes are shocking, yes, except the explanation for the story development is what the game does best to depict
