About this game

Although not traditional IF in a sense that there is no text parser, President is Missing and its sequel Presumed Guilty embody what make great IF: involving story and inventive puzzles where logical deduction and attention to detail are key to success. Both games cast you as official investigator: President is Missing puts you in charge of an investigation to rescue missing presidents from terrorists, while its successor is based on a more typical detective plot. Innovative on many levels, including real-time action, great details, and captivating storylines. Check out the "database" command for comprehensive on-line instructions and background story.

Presumed Guilty! is an espionage puzzle-solving game. The story begins when the director of the top secret S.D.I. research project "New-wave" has been killed in a tragic auto accident. As a Computer Operated Police Network (COPNET) agent the player has been assigned the investigation. The series of unexpected events turns you into the prime suspect. Starting from audio clues and using the COPNET database, the player has to prove his or her innocence.

The gameplay is based on collecting and analyzing information using the police COPNET system. The system gives you the possibility to analyze the DNA, access personal data, view service news photos and many others. The pertinent information is added as your investigation proceeds.
