NCIS
About the Game
Similar to the CSI games, NCIS is also based on a crime TV series, but instead of casting players in a role of rookie investigator, you get to control all the major characters from the series themselves. The gameplay is a mix of exploring and forensics. While exploring and looking for evidence is done in 3rd-person perspective, all the forensics mini-games draw inspiration from the techniques used in the CSI games. The narrative is told through four episodes that use same video effects and a type of humor seen in the TV series.
Gameplay & Core Systems
Each of the characters lets players perform different actions. While controlling "Very" Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo or Ziva David, you'll be going through the crime scenes taking photos and collecting evidence. Gibbs often calls members of his team to the deduction board which requires players to connects pieces of evidence into a larger picture.
