## Description

Kellie Stanford is a movie studio stylist that plans to make a career move and
become a cinematographer. One day she receives a distressing phone call from
her friend Mike, warning about a plot against her life. As she gets ready to
leave, Kellie sees from the window of her apartment the arrival of two
sinister thugs. She flees in disguise while being persecuted by the men, and
starts to investigate several locations around the city to uncover the whole
affair.

_Kellie Stanford: Turn of Fate_ is an adventure game with cartoon graphics,
simple puzzles and hidden object scenes made for the casual market. Most of
the time, the objective is to find and click on all the items displayed at the
bottom of the screen. Some objects are hidden from view, and the player has to
interact with some portion of the scenery, like opening a cupboard or box, to
reveal and collect them. On the main adventure sections, the objects are
stored to be used later when solving puzzles. Like in most point-and-click
adventures, the items have to be dragged and dropped on logical places to
perform an action or complete a task.

Twenty unique mini-games appear at the end of each section, where the player
must guide a disguised Kelly through the labyrinth-like rooms of her darkened
apartment, to escape before the arrival of the criminals; create the correct
key to open a hatch; pick the ace of hearts from a shuffled trio of cards;
play against the computer in a game of Reversi/Othello and complete other
similar challenges. The light bulbs surrounding the portrait of Kellie are
hints, with one bulb removed to show the position of one of the required
items, and two bulbs taken away to skip a mini-game. The bulbs can be restored
by playing one of the optional hidden object scenes, that can be accessed
through the magnifier near Kellie’s face.
