Innocent Until Caught is a humorous adventure set in a science fiction atmosphere. The player will play the role of the thief Jacek T. Ladd, who is full of crazy adventures but also not very ethical activities in different parts of the galaxy.

The high profits from illegal activities have become a curse of Jacek. He became interested in his earnings in the cosmic equivalent of the treasury (IRDS), which gave him less than a month to pay a horrendous fine. Considering that our hero is currently in flush, he has to find funds within a short period of time to pay outstanding taxes. The fact that it is not that easy, the player will find out already during the adventure.

Innocent Until Caught wouldn't be different from other classic adventures if it weren't for some of the innovative improvements Divide by Zero has made. One of them is a small map of subsequent locations, located in the lower left corner of the screen, which shows all available exits from the board. The second novelty is the magnifying glass icon, which will allow you to enlarge a small piece of land. With this option, you can easily find the minimum size of items, which for anger, in Innocent Until Caught is very much. The rest is a classic "point & click" interface, built on a few icons, which allow our hero to give orders.

From the audiovisual point of view, the programme presents itself quite well. Scaled silhouettes of people, meticulously made backgrounds and a few film interludes should satisfy all adventure fans. Music and sound effects also on the level, especially the first one can quickly fall into the ear. The undeniable advantage of Innocent Until Caught is its colourful and humorous dialogues. You can see that the authors put in a lot of work to make Jack's twisted personality seem very attractive to the user.
