When the soundtrack sticks to the orchestrated score, it's near-Hollywood level, but the licensed songs can't consistently claim the same quality. While there's a few miscast characters (and some supposed natives fail to display any sort of New York accent) the voice acting is almost at the level of today's top adventures. Fortunately, by that point the end is so close you'll probably just want to see where the madness leads. It's only when the story moves beyond the slightly offbeat occult mystery into an overwritten reality-questioning mess that Fahrenheit: Indigo Prophecy Remastered stops being a gripping mystery adventure. With an oppressive snowstorm turning New York into a ghost town, the cast is quite small, but the few partners, relatives, and friends are enough to flesh out the main characters. Some of the text descriptions don't quite match what is actually said by the protagonists when they’re selected, and the system doesn't carry the gravity of modern adventures and RPGs, but it holds up far better than most decade-old gaming systems. Long before Mass Effect and Walking Dead based major character moments on quick decisions, personal relationships and the direction of the investigation hinge on big decisions made in a small amount of time. The ahead-of-its-time dialogue system where characters have a limited window to react (they default to the worst response if time expires) adds a much-needed sense of urgency to the adventure game-style proceedings.

Fortunately for me, the multi-platform release provided that opportunity, as I tried the scene out on both mobile and PC platforms. This is due in no small part to the opening diner setting, which has so many permutations on both the criminal and investigation side that it's difficult to resist the urge to start over again a few times to see what might’ve happened. If anything, seeing the twists created for the detectives due to Lucas' prior actions gives reason to be as thorough a fugitive and investigator as possible. The initial weirdness of tackling both sides of a case quickly subsided, as I rarely felt the need to intentionally sabotage anything on either side. Detectives Carla Valenti and Tyler Miles must uncover the deeper mystery as Carla becomes consumed and Tyler questions his dedication. Lucas Kane struggles with being accused of a crime he doesn't remember committing and equally mysterious superpowers he's developed. A majority of that story stays grounded by focusing in on three endearing characters.
