Blue Heat is a bit tacky as a game: I can't remember if it featured any sex scenes, but there certainly was nudity every 5 steps and it certainly didn't have the deepest or most sensible themes at times, however as far as gameplay goes, it's actually pretty good! You'll be checking alibis against the time of the murders and other similar comparisons to exclude people from your list of suspects as you try to figure out who's the culprit, and it succeeds in creating a reasonably challenging yet engaging investigation where most other games fail.

Blue Heat: The Case of the Cover Girl Murders is a decidedly adult affair, being a psychosexual neo-noir tale taking inspiration from the likes of Basic Instinct, Body Double or Body of Evidence. It is a point-and-click FMV adventure starring recognisable faces such as Elliot Gould (American History X) and Paul Sorvino (Goodfellas) as well as some low-res nudity to serve the M-rated certificate proudly slapped on the box. It's little-known, but those cheap sets and stilted direction work best in the context of a game where awkward pauses are the norm as the player chooses the next line. You can tell time and effort - went into this game.
