Red Johnson's Chronicles

Have you been looking for something a little bit more cerebral in your downloadable games? If so, the upcoming puzzle adventure Red Johnson's Chronicles may be just the game for you.

Launching on PSN next week from French developer Lexis Numérique, Red Johnson's Chronicles puts players in the gumshoes of the titular Red Johnson, a detective who solves murder mysteries via point-and-click adventuring and up-close crime scene investigation. The trailer also seems to promise some action (as does the press release that accompanied it) but it's less clear how that will play out in terms of gameplay.

Check out the trailer below and look forward to the launch of Red Johnson's Chronicles on April 19.
