Wisegal Patty Montanari was married to a New York policeman and they had three sons, but after a painful battle with cancer her husband died. After paying all the hospital bills the family had no money left, forcing her to start working as a small-time criminal to the local mob to feed her children. She quickly raised in the ranks of the organization with her good business sense, and started a relationship with a mobster named Frank Russo. After barely escaping a police raid, she decided to flee to Florida with her kids to escape the crime life and ensure their security. Many years later, her son Nino receives a letter from a childhood friend, and travels to New York City for a meeting without telling anyone about it. Patty must rescue Nino from the Mafia, using the skills acquired in her previous life.

Wisegal is a hidden object game based on a TV movie, a crime drama starring Alyssa Milano and James Caan. Stills from the movie and cast are used on cutscenes to develop the plot. Most of the time, the objective is to find and click on all the items listed on the notebook at the right side of the screen, on locations related to the main storyline. There are some variations that occur on later stages, where the goal is to find the differences between two similar images, take photographs of specific portions of the scenery or place a listening device for the FBI on certain parts of the scene. The hint button shows the position of one of the required items or scene portions, but takes some time to recharge after use. [source:mobygames]
