      Law & Order: Criminal Intent is a video game adaptation of the television series Law & Order: Criminal Intent. It is the fourth title in a series of video games based on the Law & Order franchise.[1]

      Plot

      The player takes on the role of Detective Robert Goren, voiced by actor Vincent D'Onofrio, and attempts to solve four homicide investigations. As Detective Goren, the player will scrutinize crime scenes, analyze evidence and interview witnesses and suspects. The player will utilize Goren's instincts for interrogation by selecting his psychological approach to each witness and potential suspect. The player will decide if Goren should try to deceive the suspect, intimidate him into talking or take another approach altogether. Innovative puzzles ranging from easy to mind-bending will be woven into the compelling story-lines. Captain Deakins, voiced by Jamey Sheridan, will provide his streetwise perspective and savvy guidance throughout the course of the investigations. In order to solve each case, the player will build a profile based on real-life criminal profiling techniques to help track down the killers. Detective Hadrian, played by Nick Basta, is a character created specifically for the game, and was not featured in the main show.[2]
