Crime scenes are the primary focus of a player's attention, with more destinations opening up as the evidence warrants. The game is played from a first-person viewpoint with an icon-based interface along the bottom of the screen that lets players access one of 14 tools, jump to the LVPD office, crime lab, or autopsy room, or view collected evidence and case files. As an intern, players are silent observers of the crime scene and work by themselves to collect the necessary evidence that leads to a suspect's arrest, satisfying the three conditions of means, motive, and method. What better way to promote the top-rated drama than to have players actually do the detective work?ĬSI offers a series of five cases, each led by one of the five cast members of the Las Vegas Crime Lab. In the world of CSI, a strand of hair or dandruff flake could be enough to put a suspect behind bars. The game would ideally be like a Sherlock Holmes mystery but with hipper technology to play around with.

CSI's fascinating emphasis on forensic science combined with the intrigue of police drama made it an obvious choice for a game, one that could dust off the adventure genre's cobwebs and give audiences an excuse to use their gray matter as they lift fingerprints, swab sticky substances, and hold magnifying glasses to find trace evidence.
