When Rosa Blackwell's only relative dies after twenty years in a coma, she thinks the worst is over. This all changes when Joey Mallone, a sardonic ghost from the 1930s, blows into her life and tells her that she is a medium. Whether they like it or not, it is up to them to cure the supernatural ills of New York in this critically-acclaimed series of point-and-click adventure games. When three NYU students kill themselves one after the other, nobody thinks that a sinister force is at work. Nobody but fledgling medium Rosa Blackwell and her new spirit guide Joey Mallone. It's trial by fire as they set these troubled spirits to rest. Read less

Pretty cool game. I really enjoyed the characters and writing, and the plot was good for how short it is. The voice acting was overall really well done given this was small title from almost 15 years ago. I wasn't a fan of some of the point and click guess the creator's intent stuff, though. For example, I would never think to give a dog a diuretic mixed with his treat.... It's been a long time since I did a point and click, but I guess you can't really get away from a bit of that.

Anyway, it was an enjoyable way to spend a few hours. Off to the second game now.
