What is Moriarty's Revenge?

Tracking bad guys around the globe is the aim of this pleasant game. In the course of your pursuit, you learn some geography and sharpen your reasoning powers. In each of the many scattered locations, you get a choice of various places to “investigate.” By going to the correct places asking the right questions (from the choices displayed), making the correct deductions, and hurrying on to the next place on the globe, you catch the villains. You need to make use of the built-in game-playing aids (note forms and the like), and the Rand McNally Pocket Atlas that comes in the package.

The simplest level is fairly easy, and the ultimate level is very difficult. The graphics are nothing special — and not in color. The game is copy-protected, and MultiFinder incompatibility is a serious annoyance. This isn't the ultimate Mac game, but it is a pleasant way to pass time.
