I don’t know what the development team at Artifex Mundi are having for breakfast, but the speed they make games and put them out to their puzzle-solving hungry audience is nothing short of astonishing. They must be putting something special in their Weetabix in the morning as now we see another puzzler hit home, and it has to be said Path of Sin: Greed on Xbox One is yet another fascinating tale of intrigue and mystery.

Your job is to investigate a possible suicide/murder. See, a poor security guard has taken a tumble, but was he pushed?

Game Description:
It was supposed to be a simple suicide case – a quick inspection and lots of boring paperwork. But the more you delve into this secluded island and the twisted family relations of the owners, the more complicated and unclear this case becomes. A rookie inspector on her first assignment and her experienced copartner arrive at the scene – a luxurious island in the middle of the ocean owned by a young millionaire, who wants the matter concluded as quietly as possible. The question in this case appears simple enough: was a security guard’s death a suicidal plunge, or maybe an unfortunate fall? The residents of the island – the Bradford family – at first seem cordial and beyond reproach, even shocked by the death of a friendly employee. But upon closer inspection it becomes clear that they harbor animosities and deep hidden motives. The more you delve into this secluded island and the twisted family relations on it, the more complicated and unclear the matter becomes. A seemingly routine case turns into a tale of machinations driven by greed and a suicide investigation reveals multiple murders. Is anyone innocent? Will you be able to predict the assassin’s next step?
