Game
William Shakespeare's Hamlet: A Murder Mystery
About this game
As Hamlet, your task is to kill the murderer but to prevent the deaths of innocents. That provides an interesting take on original play giving the ability to change the course of events and save some important characters. That includes actually killing rats instead of Polonius and saving Ophelia from madness and ultimate death.
As young Hamlet, you must avenge the death of your father and become the new King of Denmark. You enter the court of Elsinore Palace to find clues about the mastermind that is behind the corruption in Denmark.
