oh my god I loved this game so much!
i’m a sucker for mystery games so naturally as soon as i saw this on the store i added it to my library!

the artstyle was definitely the first thing that caught my eyes, its very Double Fine-esque so no wonder I fell absolutely in love with it!

the animations are so well done & smooth as butter, it shows this Jonathan guy was the perfect guy to do it

some of the gameplay also reminded me of, probably my favorite mystery solving saga Ace Attorney, so i felt right at home with the mechanics. its like they grabbed the more interesting aspects such as the ability of presenting each item/ character to each character in the house & hearing their take in it- brings so much more realism & context to the game

the only critic i have is the console version, the UX can be totally improved, just by mapping some actions to the gamepad buttons instead of making the user navigate & interact with everything only using the pointer! i tapped the button B so many times trying to close menus lol

but besides that, i really loved this game for real. as soon as i finished it i was hoping there’d be at least a rumor of a sequel. so imagine the excitement when i found out about The mermaid’s tongue <3
