[POTENTIAL SOLUTION]

Ok, Officer Mkennedy, let's make it a POTENTIAL SOLUTION together!
Chief, let's send Team 1 to Smither's Industrial Complex and Team 2 to Silver Creek
We should make one team with officers White and Collins and the other one with officers Leland and Ullman.
We know that Ullman is the best driver, so depending upon the locations, i let you decide who will
be Team 1 and Team 2.
Let's pray we don't fail ......

You may want to send at least 3 officers to each location rather than just two.

[A]

I believe we should shake some action NOW
For the first paragraph: My top candidate would be Smither's Industrial Complex, see explanation above
For the second paragraph, it would be Silver Creek, as explained by Kastchey. Tweener's way would be an alternative,
but I'm afraid that if we fail at one location, we won't be able to catch the killer AND save the film team.
Creek from"Creak" is similar to Cunningham Centre from"Center"
For the numbers : I think it's only the ACAB ( All Cops Are Bastards) insult,
they also appear in a sequence.
Before I make it a POTENTIAL SOLUTION, I would like to have my colleagues' approval, unless someone
comes up with a better theory....

If it saves lives I say go for it, just use caution though in case it is a trap (Is the killer still doing that?)

Is this going to be a horror game or a game with horror elements?

If something belongs to the pizza or you are abbreviating "pizza is" or "pizza has" then the apostrophe should be used. IE "Somebody ate all this pizza's anchovies" or "This  pizza's quite spicy" or "This  pizza's got anchovies", But otherwise I don't think it would be needed.

Ask the legal experts about enforcing NDAs during a criminal investigation. But if we ask the boy's parents to hand over all material relating to the film he might get in trouble. Plus they would likely challenge it considering they are lawyers.

If you send somebody to Barrymore Place you may want to send two pairs of officers in case the suspect is planning to burn down the building with the officers inside. With two pairs while one pair is in building the other can keep watch on the outside, preferably hidden so the suspect doesn't know they are watching him. You may be able to get away with only 3 officers if the third stays hidden, but that would be rather risky.

The perp refers to the victims as birdies. Is that of any significance?

Have forensics do some analysis of the brick in case it holds any clues, maybe find out if anybody bought the same type of brick recently. Also ask the hospitals if any patients are being treated for cold or allergy symptoms.

[POTENTIAL SOLUTION:]

Never been so clueless..
First birdie, so there must be a second birdie
*ACHOO* ? Cannot find a thing, neither in the "poem" nor outside of it....
I'm afraid that Garret Hawthorne will be a widower soon ...
POTENTIAL SOLUTION:
Following heltenjon's guess i'd suggest we send Officers Leland and Ullman
to ENDER'S COPSE

You should probably make sure they are extra cautious though, just in case it's a trap.
See if the first kidnap victim has anything in common with the family of the second kidnapping.

Maybe the letter matrix is like one of those Boggle games. Would running it through a solver program be allowed or would that constitute cheating?

Adventure horror game, looks promising. You can download the demo off of Steam or elsewhere.

A VGA or high resolution of the Hobbit text adventure would be cool, especially if it keeps the parser, but then also adds point and click functionality as well.

What about including an option for the player so they can decide whether look and examine should give the same output? But if they do produce different  outputs you should definitely tell the player that.
Another possible solution would be to have look and examine both give the long description and then have a 'glance' command that gives a short description. Of course this would only be needed if you bother adding short descriptions in the first place.

I think the World of Ultima series needs a more smart interface to be played by the modern audience! And with some minor graphic refining will be perfect!

...

The Ultima games would be good for remakes. The complete Ultima 7 and Ultima Underworld games are among my favorites. There was some work being done on a Savage Empire remake using the Exult engine, but I don't know the current status of it. It would be cool though if they were able to rip the graphics or sprites from the SNES port, though that may bring up some copyright issues.

What computer games would you like to see remade? The games should primarily be adventure games or games with adventure like elements at least, though I considered posting in the general forum and allowing all games.
Some games I would like to see are the two Phantasmagoria games, but with added captions and maybe translation into other languages.

Does the Samhain version of "All Hell" count? Both groups had Glenn Danzig on vocals.

If you ever wanted to grow a mullet now you have an excuse! Originally when my hair started to get too long I suggested my mom take me to the barber, but she was worried about catching the CoronaVirus. Now that the whole state is locked down none of us could go out to get a haircut even if we wanted to.

The last couple of days I have been having trouble accessing the site. Hopefully the problems will be fixed.

Is there anyway to recover a deleted save game slot if you delete within the AGS game?

The phrase 'Trumpocalypse' sounds better I think.
