The first episodes of Blue Toad Murder Files were released in December 2009 with the PlayStation Network exclusive receiving praise from across the media. Eurogamer awarded the game 8/10 saying: “Murder has rarely been so pleasant as it is amidst the tidy hedges, twitching curtains and flocking geese of Little Riddle, while videogames have almost never left their comfort zones behind with such breezy assurance.”

Danny Isaac, Studio Manager, at Relentless commented: “Throughout Blue Toad’s lifetime we’ve thought of it as somewhere between a videogame and a murder mystery TV show so it seems fitting that we should release a virtual Box Set. With a summer of sport to look forward to, Blue Toad Murder Files offers an alternate activity for all the family to play together.”
