Erma: The Game

Cute quick game. If you like Erma comics, check out the game

If you are a fan of the Erma comics or even if you never heard of her, this is fun little game that has alot of charm and cute animations. It will bring you back to the days of The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy or Courage the Cowardly Dog.

What an absolutely charming game this is! A point and click not too dissimilar to that of Pajama Sam in terms of cute animations and simple puzzles, which is admittedly a sort of back handed compliment. This is neither difficult nor lengthy, with there only being 5 condensed areas with pretty simple puzzles/minigames that took rough 10-20 minutes each. Not that that's a bad thing, I never went into this expecting a Shipwrecked 64 level puzzle, but it does leave me at least wishing for more, which is something I would not be feeling if this game wasnt so DAMN CHARMING. The animation, the goofy horror, the interactables, just about everything to love from the Erma comics is illustrated beautifully here, and I just want as much of it as I can get my greedy hands on. The quality and abundance of said quality makes me understand why there was a limit on what they wanted to do, because absolutely EVERYTHING you can interact with has a well drawn animation to go alongside it, along with quite a few cutscenes of almost equal quality (for some reason most of the cutscenes use a smaller canvas size than the rest of the game. What doesnt help is the perpetual volume bar ui that is much higher quality so to speak than the rest of the animation) To sum up the short if not long winded, the animation alone is worth the 2 candy bars of a price this game ask of you to play it, I just wish there was a little more, which definitely isnt the worse complaint for a game to have

Very cute Humongous Entertainment type point and click. I think kids who love horror would love this. Read the comic too, it's very good. Oh and the animations are basically like the animations on the YouTube, so watch those too. Plug plug. I think my only dislike was the maze. I dislike mazes. Most of the minigames were fun otherwise. And there's only like, one puzzle that was finnicky to proceed with. This could be a great series if they wanted it to be.

Super Cute, fun, and short. Finished the whole game in a little over an hour.

LOVE this game. You can tell lots of passion and hard work went into this project and it came out wonderfully. Not without its flaws but honestly that's what makes it even more charming. Sound design is great as well, would find myself humming along and not realize it when I was working through the puzzles. Absolutely would recommend if you want to spend a few hours getting your detective on with that pinch of horror.
