A Fumble In The Dark steps up from its predecessor in most all aspects.

The cases are now longer and (slightly) more challenging whilst retaining the loveable callback-to-lucas arts point and click-humour that made the first so appealing.

While it does slightly feel like the length of the cases outstay their welcome (especially in the final two) it’s helped that there’s only 6 (with 3 additional bonus cases that are much shorter).

The characters and dialogue are very well written and help to bring alive the absolute stupidity of the world they’re in. I hope this isn’t the last we see of Dooley and McQueen.
