Our take on Mystery Case Files®: 13th Skull™ Collector's Edition

The likely sticking point is the investigation format: players looking for a different kind of gameplay may bounce when the case calls for hidden-object searches. The supernatural pirate story is another dividing point for anyone who does not want a ghost and curse at the center of the mystery.
