If you can dig interactive fiction, this is an excellent example of the genre. A murder mystery, in which you aren't burdened with a lot of meaningless struggles with the interface, and can concentrate on trying to figure out the plot. For example, you just tell your assistant to have something tested at the lab, and a few turns later he brings you the results. Interrogating suspects is a lot of fun, too.
Materials that shipped with the game are available at: http://gallery.guetech.org/witness/witness.html
CompatibilityLike 'Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy' (not included in this download), you don't need to configure a Mac emulator to play these games, because 'Zoom' does the job for you, too.
For Zoom, please refer to its homepage at http://www.logicalshift.demon.co.uk/mac/zoom.html
To get the games recognized by Zoom, please add the extension ".z5" (without quotes) to The Witness application name.
