PREFACE :-


UPDATE #1
(7 October 2002) :-


Legacy Interactive have intimated that since a
number of players have criticized the time restrictions imposed by the clock
count-down, they will be issuing a patch some time fairly soon.  Whether this
will completely remove the time aspect from the game, or only partially,
or ‘by choice’, I don’t know.


Due to this, I thought of deleting the times
included here since they may (or may not) be irrelevant & redundant  … see {5}. 
However, I decided to leave them in, in case they are of any assistance.  If
they are useless, then just ignore them.


UPDATE #2
(11 October 2002) :-

The abovementioned
patch has been released.  

It makes the clock count-down run 10
times slower —
but
only if you choose the "Efficiency Skill”
This should more or less
totally remove the ‘time’ limitation.

See {5} & {6} below
   

(N.B.   I haven’t tried this, but I assume
that it works well without disturbing anything else in the gameplay ?!?

I have been informed that you will not be able to
use any previous saves after you install the patch, as happens with some games
but not with others.).

  
This patch also corrects at least one of the technical bugs which some players
have encountered.

 

{1}     
During beta testing there were some difficulties necessitating the replacement
of the part-1 CD.  This caused ALL previous Saves to be unusable.  To prevent
the testers from wasting a LOT of time & causing them superfluous repetitive
hassle, a basic no frills walkthrough for part-1 (only) was issued together with
the replacement CD.

This walkthrough is based to a considerable degree
(but not entirely) upon the one produced by “Legacy Interactive” … and hence my
thanks & acknowledgement to them.

{2}   
This walkthrough describes the absolute minimum actions (I think) which
you must take in order to succeed.  

However, please don’t use this walkthrough
UNLESS  YOU  ABSOLUTELY  HAVE  TO
.  Many items, actions, and even some
‘secondary’ locations which are not absolutely essential have been omitted.  A
lot of these are interesting and provide the background story to the game.

WARNING
:-  The main purpose of this game is to examine clues, interview witnesses &
suspects, etc.  Some of these actions are essential, but many are fruitless or
even red herrings … as in real life investigations. 


If you simply take this walkthrough in your hand and
follow exactly what to do & not to do, you can probably finish the game in about
a couple of hours.  This would completely destroy the whole purpose of the game!

{3}     
The object of the first part of L&O is for you to assist the
detective (Lennie Briscoe) to arrest the correct suspect during 7 working days
of 8 hours each.  Most actions that you perform & questions that you ask (but
not all) reduce your time, generally by ¼ hour or sometimes by ½ hour each.  If
you fail, you have to replay part or all of the game in order to advance to the
second part of the game … the trial.

            In the second part of L&O, you help the Assistant
District Attorney (A.D.A. … Serena Southerlyn) to obtain a “Guilty” verdict at
the subsequent trial of your suspect.  This part is more complex since it
consists of several watertight consecutive sections and will be described fully
at the beginning of part-2.         

{4}     
As opposed to most Quest/Adventure games, do NOT “pick up every item which is
not nailed down” &/or try to perform every action possible.  If you do this, you
will very rapidly run out of time, and have to return to some previous stage. 
You have to restrict yourself to the minimum of essential
items, actions & questions in order to conserve time as much as possible.

            Note:-  There is space for up to 52 items in the ‘inventory’ of your
case file.  If you want to store any additional, you can use the trash can to
make room.  But, be very careful how you do this.  I don’t think you can
reclaim any item once you have removed it … and you might need it later for
(essential) evidence!!

{5}      Note :-  The “Updates”
above are likely to modify (some of) this section :-

I have inserted in red
some ‘very average’ times left at various stages.   You may have more time left
(good), or less (not so good).  However, if you just have ‘reasonable’ numbers
of hours less, don’t worry because all the times which just happen to be listed
here, finish with considerably more hours (in part-1, over 2 DAYS) to
spare than necessary!

{6}     
At the beginning of both halves of the game you are prompted to select either
one or a maximum of two out of four ‘skills’ (‘strengths’) … the game will not
permit you to select more than two!

Once you have made your choice at the very beginning
of each half, you will be UNABLE to change your selection without
returning again to the beginnings.

This walkthrough has made one of the many
possible selections which enable you to finish each half of the game
satisfactorily, and with scores of 100% each!  It was possibly NOT the wisest
choice!

In practice, it is probably better to adopt the
following plan (similar to a strategy suggested in the game’s manual) :-

   {a} Use the “Evidence Collection” skill
throughout the whole game
to provide yourself with a magnifying
glass which highlights all & only the items you can interact with … if you do
not choose it, you will have to perform very frustrating pixel hunts over
the whole areas of some screens.  

   {b} Use also the “Efficiency” skill which allows
you to roam around as much as you like whilst conserving time (particularly
if you’ve applied the patch and hence enabled almost unlimited time!

… see “Updates” above
).

   {c} Once you get used to the game, it doesn’t
take long to restart and repeat what you’ve already played.

So if/when you get stuck or reach a dead end,
restart, but use the “Teamwork” skill instead of “Efficiency” in order to obtain
some helpful built in hints.  

   {d} Go back and forth between {b} & {c} as often
as you need to!

{7}     
Whenever you see the cell-phone icon blinking you can click on it.  Frequently
you are given quite important clues hinting at what to do next, or sometimes
absolutely
essential info.  But quite often you just
get some purely background blurb which is not really vital to progressing in the
game.

         
In part-1, if you have chosen the appropriate ‘skill(s)’, Van Buren writes hints
from time to time on the chalkboard in the 27th Precinct.  These are generally
helpful if you are stuck!  An equivalent situation applies in part-2 to faxes
sent by the District Attorney, Douglas Wade, and received in the Assistant
District Attorney’s office.

         
However cell-phone calls generally “cost” ¼ hour, whilst accessing the
chalkboard &/or faxes always do!

            I’ve included ALL cell-phone time-deductions in this walkthrough
since the game appears to imply this.  But I have included NO time-deductions
for chalkboard or faxes (since they may not be available in some
‘skill-combinations’). 

         
Of course you can always ‘cheat’ with all these hints!  Save immediately
before
accessing; access & obtain the info; then return to your Save with no
time deduction  :- )

{8}    In
general SAVE FREQUENTLY.  It is very easy to make a wrong
or redundant move!  

You have 15 save-slots.  If you like you can save
batches of up to 15 ‘permanently’ (zipping if you like) before overwriting.

 

PART-1 …

“Teamwork” ‘skills’, and then “Done
