I played all the "Murder Is Game Over" games, and can easily say that I had great time playing the games. waiting for the new one :)
I 100%ed this game in just under two hours, and if you were thorough, you could probably do it even faster. It's a short game but I still believe it's priced well, and for people who like detective/point-and-click games, it's worth a try. Visually, it's charming. The 2D Pixel graphics still manage to look nice and the environments are fun to explore. Story-wise, it's a very straightforward who don it, featuring all your favourite characters. Creepy groundskeeper! Adopted child! Beautiful younger lover! Usually I dislike when a detective story feels too cookie-cutter, but all of these characters manage to be fun or interesting in some way and it just pairs with the visuals so well. Gameplay-wise, its simple but not bad. You play as two characters simultaneously, using Guy to interrogate and his dog Cleo to find clues and evidence. Both of these components play into each other well, and neither felt more useful than the other. Guy can't interrogate without Cleo's evidence, and Cleo can't access new areas without Guy. I only found one major bug, other than that it felt smooth. All in all, its a good game. The only thing that really upset me about this game was that there wasn't more of it. Crossing my fingers that this turns into a series. Strongly Recommend to other Mystery fans.
Murder is Game Over Game Review (Disclaimer - This is just my opinion and may be unpopular or disliked.) (General) 1. This is a pixel art detective style video game. 2. The game is about being a detective on a murder case and involves solving puzzles. (Positive) 1, The game is short and even multiple playthroughs can be played in one sitting. 2. The pixel art and in game music works well together and gives it the nostalgia of old games. 3. The story is done well, ties itself together well, and kept you entertained until the end. 4. The characters all have diversity and add to expanding the game well without feeling like you are having the same convesations in questioning a person that just looks different. 5. The game has effort put in and it really does show even though it is pixel art, which doesn't bother me, but I know some people are all about graphics, etc. (Negative) 1. For some people, the game being pixel art can be a turn off. 2. People might enjoy a more psychological detective game, where this is very light (as in not graphic or complex in a psychological way) and sometimes cartoony. (This just means the game might not be for you and not that it is a bad game.)

A fun little mystery game. Part whodunnit, part treasure hunt. You can expect to finish it in less than 2 hours.
Super fun and cute murder mystery. I really enjoyed exploring and figuring out all the clues. Especially the treasure hunt. Minor glitch when encountering the bear, but a restart of Steam fixed the game again. And I really enjoyed the ending, Hercule Poirot style.
Pretty fun mystery game for a pixel art game, definitely gonna play the other games
Cute quick game. If you ever want to kill an hour, it is well worth the price even when full priced.
A short little murder mystery. Took about an hour and a half to beat. The story is decent but nothing mind blowing. It's not really that hard to guess the culprit. The game is good enough and inexpensive enough that I will probably try their other games in the franchise and see if they improve and learn from their experience from making this game.
Рекомендую (9 із 10). Доволі хороший детектив як на свою ціну. За більше ніж годину в мене не було такого відчуття нудьги. Наоборот чим дальше ведеш рослідування, тим більш цікавішою стає гра. Тут гравцю наданий стандартний набір детективу - є підозрюванні, докази, та відносно заплутанний сюжет. Гра не заставляє гріндити а виключно дає гравцю розвагу на більш ніж годину часу. Я думав що сюжет буде банальний(від частини так і є), але не зважаючи що багато хто говорить що розумів вже зразу хто скоїв злочин, я в самому кінці (після збору всіх доказів та після всіх допитів) аж зрозумів хто що де і коли. P.S. Бал зняв за всякі знаходження предметів, які по суті не впливають на геймплей, а потрібні тільки для ачівок, їх можна було якось вплести в сюжет але їх так і лишили.
