Our take on Classified Stories: The Tome of Myrkah
Its 1–2 hour structure keeps the investigation focused, but limits the room available for extended exploration and a longer story arc. As the first title in a series, it also presents an opening chapter rather than the full scope of Jim Morrison's continuing adventures.
