Legacy Interactive has released a demo for its newest Law & Order game, Criminal Intent.

Criminal Intent breaks from the format of the previous L&O games by employing a third-person perspective and gameplay that's more focused on the psychological aspect of a police investigation. The player controls Detective Goren, star of the television series, as he investigates four interrelated murder cases. The 166MB download, which features a portion from the beginning of one of these cases, includes questioning a witness, speaking to the medical examiner, and searching the murder site for evidence.

Criminal Intent is now available for purchase from Legacy's website and other online retailers, and is making its way to brick and mortar stores across North America. To learn more about the game, see our recent interview with members of Criminal Intent's creative team.
