    Overall, while it does have its flaws and the gameplay itself isn't terribly exciting, City Interactive have done well to create an enjoyable adventure game with Crime Lab: Body Of Evidence.

    Crime Lab: Body of Evidence is a perfectly mediocre point-and-click adventure game that's hindered by a dull plot and a few design flaws.

    One for CSI fans only, sloppy mini-games and annoying dialogue mar what could've been an engaging point-and-click adventure.

    There's some gratuitous (And not very effective) use of the DSi camera, but that can't elevate this above puzzling mediocrity. [Issue#56, p.71]

    Unfortunately, good artistic design just can't fully make up for a few glaring flaws. If you can see past those flaws, though, you'll find an enjoyable game that will help you waste a few hours. If not, this might be one to leave off your Christmas list.

    If there's any real fault of Crime Lab, it's that it doesn't do anything particularly new or interesting. It's a well-crafted game that anyone looking the pass the time on a bus ride or a lunch break could have a grand old time with, but it does little to tantalize the senses of capture the imagination.
