Critical Gamer Writes: If you're a relatively small developer promoting your upcoming game, showing it off at the Eurogamer Expo is a great way to go about it. Less than ideal is to be tucked away from the main show floor, in an area openly referred to as 'The Basement', which nonetheless houses crowdhogging titles such as Heavy Rain (which wasn't actually hogging any crowds when we tried to check it out, as it had crashed), FIFA 10, and The Beatles Rock Band. This is how Blue Toad Murder Files was presented at the show; but nonetheless, the screens were never less than busy. Why? Because it's shaping up to be something special.
Pocket Gamer: Blue Toad Murder Files doesn't feel like a port of a PS3 game. It feels like a title that's found its rightful home after a couple of years of wandering. The simple gameplay translates perfectly to the touchscreen of your iOS device, and the gentle pace is perfect for an evening spent reclining on the sofa.
It's by no means a perfect game, and there are some issues with load times in particular with this version, but if you're looking for a series of interconnected mini-games held together by comedy stereotypes then you're in for something of a treat.
Relentless Software has announced that Episode 1 of Blue Toad Murder Files: The Mysteries of Little Riddle is now available for free on the PlayStation Store in Europe, Australia, New Zealand and North America.

I'm just a little off on the multi-player aspect, is it competitive or cooperative? If it is, how do you score? Does the game declare a "winner"?
Be that as it may, we certainly need games like this on the PSN, kudos to Sony.
I hope it's as must fun as buzz is
