In Crazy Nick’s Parlor Games with Laura Bow, the famous young detective swaps clues for checkers, backgammon, and card tables. The change of pace is gentle—no bodies to find, no culprits to catch—just the soft clatter of virtual game pieces and Laura’s polite company. The presentation is quaint, the pace unhurried, and the computer opponents just competitive enough to keep you awake. It’s the kind of title you play on a rainy Sunday, sipping tea and imagining Laura wondering why she isn’t out solving crimes instead of watching you lose at backgammon.
