This is the story of young FBI agent Nicole Bonnet. Her first task is to solve a series of macabre murders where the victims are targeted as the wealthy and prominent of the community. The culprit’s weaponry is rare and leaves an unusual calling card by removing the heart of those they choose. The adventure begins in New York, but the clues will lead ambitious agent Bonnet as far as the Peruvian city of Cusco – the ancient capital of the Inca Empire, as well as on the border of the Amazon jungle.

A great "who-done-it" mystery game with huge elements of puzzle solving. If you're into this sort of genre, you'll be pretty happy with the title.

Art of Murder: FBI Confidential is a decent point and click adventure, with good longevity and an engrossing story to match.

Adventure Gamers
Although the game rarely excels at any particular aspect, and the loose characterisation lets it down, the presentation and story are solid enough to atone for any rough edges, and will keep you guessing until the end.

There's no great mystery, after all - Art of Murder is a competent game that doesn't bring anything new to the table, but never commits any blatant mistakes.

GameZone
A mediocre adventure game that may offer a few hours of enjoyment to some. Much of it is illogical or unexplained, and the voice-acting is hard to get past.

Just Adventure
Art of Murder gives it a decent try but doesn’t quite rise to the challenge. Poor Agent Bonnet has beauty but not brains.

Art of Murder gets most of the fundamentals right, but after spending an hour or so with its grating characters, banal dialogue, and inept plot, you probably won't care. [Oct 2008, p.63]

Worth Playing
Sub-par in almost every respect.

IGN
It’s a traditional adventure game that mucks up all the traditional reasons for playing.

EuroGamer
Art of Murder is poorly paced, illogically structured and often downright laughable.
33
Gaming Nexus
Art of Murder paints itself into a corner with the same old brushes we've seen misused time and time again.

Truly awful - one of the worst adventure games in years. [Aug 2008, p.87]
