The graphic style is nice, and the peppering of humour throughout the dialogue is certainly entertaining. There is, however, one fatal flaw that prevents me from enjoying this game: it's buggy.
I'm getting a bit sick of downloading games that crash and quit, and this one does so at several points, thoroughly ruining the adventure.
Daedalic Entertainment, I hope you read this. Your game needs more work - I paid forty bucks for this 'trash', and I expected something more than a beta.
A perfect classic game that I played a lot before. Very happy to play it once again, and for sure (because the game is old) the game runs perfectly, no bug.
Le jeu est bien bâti et on s'amuse plusieurs heures! Le fait qu'il soit un vieux jeu bénéficie du fait qu'il n'y a aucun bug et ne prend pas beaucoup de place sur le disque dur pour un vieux portable comme le mien!! Si vous ne choisissez pas un jeu pour ses graphiques, je vous le conseille donc fortement.
This is not the game of the year for sure, but you will have hours of fun to play this game if you like the CSI universe. For the price, I recommend it.
Get GRID™ for the sale price of $6.99! Normally goes for $24.99.

Tedious in the long run
Agree with the previous reviewer, not enough to keep you engaged overall with some annoying details that just add to the general feeling of boredom and tedium. Being unable to rapidly scroll through the item lists is not a big deal at the beginning when your options are limited due to being new and having to work at getting anywhere. But once the item/option lists start becoming very long, clicking in order to scroll down just gets annoying. As does the constant running back and forth between buildings, the repetitiveness and sameness of the tasks and the poor grammar/spelling in the speech menus and character scripts. Download the demo, I think the hour you get is more than long enough to play!
Not particularly engaging though quite charming, not the sort of time management game you're likely to want to play again. There's a few others out there that give an incentive for getting all levels perfect (gold stars) as they unlock either bonus games or more difficult levels. This one doesn't. All in all a bit disapointing.
