The last game that I have played -- on PlayStation2 to be specific is *drum roll please* The Da Vinci Code. And I'm proud to say that I finished it 100% all by myself. Do you want a review? Aw... I don't think you want to read me rave (much less rant). Alright...

The game is not 100% a tie-in with the book and movie. You don't need to watch the movie or read the book to play the game. A teensy bit of knowledge in History would help but other than that, you can play this blind. It plays out pretty much the in the same venues and timelines as the book/movie - Louvre, Swiss Bank, Chateau Villette, airport, Roslin Chapel. All the same characters and their roles are there: Langdon, Neveu, Teabing, Remy, Silas, the nuns. But there are extra characters that either help you or hinder your from succeeding in your mission. Some of the organizations, affliations, words, art and such are changed in this game.

The main thing to watch out here is the placement of clues. One must be observant when playing this game. In some of the puzzles, a higher level of IQ and that History knowledge comes in handy. Even in the Easy level, the puzzles are enough to make you pull all your nose hair! Some are so simple, you will miss the sheer simplicity of it. It does make you feel stupid, yeah.

What else? Oh! Silas. There is one sequence/game stretch in the whole thing where he's coming at you and you have to unlock four locks in order to escape him. Not to mention, he's shooting at you while he's slowly looming over you. The thought of a huge, stark white, red-eyed man coming at you with a Revolver in his hand is enough to make your hair stand.

Overall, I recommend this game. Maybe not to all though. Make your life easier. Read up on History first and go join Mensa hahahahah!
