Detective Grimoire is back again with another murder mystery Point&Click game. Tagging along with Sally, Grimoire made his way to Tangle Tower where a murder occurred the previous night. A 19 years old girl named Freya Fellow was killed while painting a portrait of one of the family members. No weapon was found at the scene except for the knife she painted in her unfinished portrait. There are many suspects and many rooms to visit and search for clues. You'll get to meet the two family members and question each one of them to decide who is the killer. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1941106515 The house is huge, there is a fast traveling map for easy access as you'll have to go back and forth to the rooms searching for any leads. The gameplay is very nice, you get the whole room to check, everything is clickable and each thing you find the characters will comment on. I like the art style so much, it is different than the first game but still very nice to look at, the animation and design of the characters and are very well done too. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1941119311 The whole game is fully voiced, the voice actors have captured each character's personality nicely. When you collect a piece of evidence, you can show it to each character to hear their thoughts about it, you can also ask for their alibi and thoughts of other characters who live in the same house. with all of this information, you can form a big picture of who actually did it. This also leads to the puzzles which you need to solve in order to find 'items' those characters been keeping away from other's eyes. And just like the previous game, after you collect enough information you'll make a statement out of it. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1941443625 Pros: +Beautiful artwork and locations. +Very well-done murder mystery story. +Good soundtracks. +Useful notes and list of items to help you with your investigation. +Original puzzles. +Good animation and characters design. +Fast travel map. +Mystery/detective style. +Good voice-over. Cons: -No steam achievements (The developers stated they'll add it in the next update) It took me almost ten hours to finish the whole game, I was idle for around an hour but you'll get around 7-8 hours of gameplay, it is a huge improvement compared to the previous game which I also enjoyed but was way shorter. I highly recommended it to all P&C lovers, people who like investigation and detective-style games.

The ending ruins the rest of the game. While the beginning was fun with the point and click very light detective work, and while the art work and voiceacting is all phenomenal... the actual "story" is like watching Lost on fast forward. After you are done solving everyones suspicion and found all the evidence you enter a series of hidden rooms where you find more items and discover more evidence. But when you confront the murderer it turns out you didn't actually learn anything and you just have to listen to them monologue for a while about stuff that hasn't been set up and just is confusing. And when the game hard cuts to credits it doesn't feel like anything is resolved. Maybe originally the devs had planned for a much bigger game and story but could only give you the wikipedia level entrie at the end instead. Either way its bad. It's so bad it taints the rest of the experience.Show moreShow less
I need a sequel with 3x the amount of puzzlesShow moreShow less
Purchase ONLY when on sale. Production values are high - to the point where the game feels like it ran out of money as it aborts abruptly leaving more dangling plot threads than a cat sweater. Characters are lovingly animated with a unique and charming art style and the game is fully voice-acted. I particularly like how the entire cast will comment on every character and piece of evidence in the game. Unfortunately as a result, it suffers from a content dearth - the core gameplay consists of (incredibly contrived) puzzles/brain teasers and detective intuition segments, the puzzles being of a more limited variety than classics such as the Castle/Island of Dr Brain and range greatly in quality from excellent (the last true puzzle in the game) to insulting (Of the put square peg in square hole sort). There are fewer than 20 of them and they barely last longer than an hour or two combined at the most. This is not good value for your money. This game may offend mystery purists as it is firmly entrenched in the genre of "supernatural mystery", although certain elements can be solved in advance (or are heavily hinted to), the full solution is only disclosed several minutes before the entire mystery handed to you on a platter thanks to magical plot devices (In other words: the mystery is not completely solvable with real-world logic. This is not a fair plot and you additionally have to ignore a lot of real-world science such as the severely inappropriate nature of blood as a red paint substitute ). As a result, the game is probably more enjoyable for the young teenager crowd who won't be distracted as much by the massive logic errors. Especially the requirement for one character to have superpowers for the majority of the game thanks to a gameplay/plot disconnect which essentially requires that character be in two places at the same time. You're not supposed to think too hard about this. There is frequent use of character banter in a style more akin to a Joss Whedon script than a detective novel (this is apparently why there is a deuteragonist, not to serve the function of Watson, but to provide witty commentary). I admit that it can be entertaining, but ultimately just empty filler fat scraped over the bones of a detective plot skeleton. I wouldn't mind this as much if the mystery aspect had been planned with greater care and the attempts at resolution didn't come off as convenience-based magic whack-a-mole with gaping plot holes (or were ignored completely). There are different obligations between the thriller and the detective genre. Even if I accept your fantasy world narrative, I expect all the characters to abide by the rules you have set up with some measure of consistency. Ultimately a little disappointing when viewed as a detective mystery, but worth playing as light mental stimulation if you can get it for cheap.Show moreShow less
9/10 game until the last 30 minutes where the writers just gave up i guessShow moreShow less
This game has the worst ending that I have ever seen. It completely mocks logic, lore, alibis, clues, character identity, and your whole adventure just to stick to some stupid plot twist that didn't need to exist and should not have existed. I had a great time playing the whole rest of the game, I think the game itself is really fun, but the ending completely ruins it all. I feel completely betrayed for trying to understand the story in which clearly a lot of effort was put into it, only for it to be ignored in the end for no reason at all.Show moreShow less
PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD MAKE ANOTHER GAME LIKE THAT, I'm willing to pay for more!! I felt so immersed within these characters and their lifes... Best point and click everShow moreShow less
I really, really wish I could give this game a recommendation. I love everything about it. The backgrounds, the animations, the music, the voice work, the puzzles, everything. But the game sets up all these tantalizing mysteries beyond the murder itself, about the tower, the island, the lake, and then it just... ends. No resolution, no answers.Show moreShow less
Ending was hella rushed, but besides that this game was an absolute banger.Show moreShow less
Not Worth Your Time I don't normally write reviews. But no, I'm actually angry about this one. Sure, the art is great, the voice acting is pretty good, the characters are fun, charming, interesting and greatly designed. The Puzzles are OK. The humor made me actually laugh out loud a few times. It's great fun for the biggest part of its playtime. But the mystery and story are so extremely unfinished, the ending is so deeply, insultingly terrible, that after the credits rolled I was at first completely convinced I missed something and reached a "bad ending". It's like they just finished the first third of the game and then realized they had no more time or budget. If this ended after 2/3 of the playtime and was called "Chapter 1", I'd be eagerly awaiting the next chapter. But it's not. It's all we'll ever get and the ending so "breaks" the story and characters, I doubt they could ever satisfyingly follow up on this. They could write a sequel where the victim is revealed to be alive and actually working with the murderer the whole time, which to me would actually make the most sense after everything we've "learned". That's how unresolved this case is. The game begins with a VERY long free investigation throughout the entirety of the titular Tangle Tower. This is the good part. After getting enough clues and talking to the characters, you basically get to scratch the surface of each person's story a single time through a "Suspicion"-dialogue. These lead to uncovering what feels like the very first layer of their stories. There's a character that used to look completely different and no-one wants to talk about why, a secret love-triangle uncovered, a character that doesn't talk at all for some reason (some hidden trauma, ofc), and also, the strong hint the murder victim must somehow still be alive, after finding a very specifically written note with her confirmed handwriting on it. There's lots of hints of deeper emotional connections between characters than they openly show, as well as secret family tragedies and conspiracies. None of this is ever resolved or elaborated upon. This isn't the start of Act II (what it feels like), but the endpoint for all these characters. After freely investigating for far more than half the playtime and reaching a maximum point of intrigue after completing all the Suspicions, you then linearly explore some more secret rooms. This then leads to an extremely abrupt "villain"-reveal. Not only was this "triple-identity" villain barely ever hinted (there is a strong hint, but it gets deflected and also doesn't make any sense after learning the full story), and has almost no relation to all the interesting plot-strands revealed in the hours of investigation; even after learning the "full story" (or rather, especially after learning the full story), none of their motivations and actions make any actual sense. So there literally is no real motive for the murder in a murder mystery game where you spend all your time looking for a motive and a weapon. Literally any other character could have been the twist villain with the exact same setup and "motivation". I've rarely been left feeling so disappointed by a game which I quite enjoyed for most of my playtime. The worst part is, I find myself still thinking and speculating about some of these actually likable characters' stories even days after finishing it, before I remind myself that there simply is nothing more than what we got here. Yes, the game does many things right in the design-department and it's fun for a good amount of its length. But it's not worth carrying the annoyance of these unfinished stories around with you after playing. And waste hours of playtime on, when you could play an actually good mystery game with an actual resolution. It's a big reminder to ALWAYS look at some negative reviews before buying a game, no matter how good the average score looks.Show moreShow less
