spectacular sequel, with a much more conclusive ending.
Absolutely worth the wait. I LOVED IT SO MUCH! The voiceovers, perfect. Character designs, perfect. The mystery? Perfect. Once more Detective Grimoire and Sally got me hooked to another mystery. I'm glad I saw their funny yet clever puns and dynamic again while trying to choose suspects to frame as the murderer.

Truly a masterpiece
i was already expecting this game to be good after having played tangle tower but oh my god. Oh My God!!!!!! the characters are even more memorable, the clues are 3D NOW, and the music!! THE MUSIC!!!! my friend and i have both been absolutely losing our minds over wirman's theme for days now it's So Good. story good, mystery good. play this game. it was worth the wait and i understand if we don't get another one but i hope to god that we do.
no notes, buy it now
Moja ulubiona para detektywów powraca w nowej grze! Wyczekiwałąm niecierpliwie na premierę gry i zdecydowanie mnie ona nie zawiodła. Aniamcje, rysunki, postaci i ich charaktery są jeszcze lepsze niż w poprzednich częsciach. Zakończenie jest satysfakcjonujące, a ostatni rozdział gry trzymał w napięciu. Polecam każdemu!
2.7 hours in and it's just great so far. Excellent puzzles right off the bat, not too hard but they're interesting and reward intuition and experimentation. The same great voice acting and writing as Tangle Tower. I've been dying for more banter between characters in this world. More of the same fun weird art style that goes hard. the music is great too. I was a little disappointed in the end of the previous game but am still so excited to get another detective grimoire game. I will update this as I play more but for now I definitely recommend playing it. It's so good to be back.
It was a long wait, but the game was worth it. I played the previous installments with my 10yo kid and he insisted on putting The Mermaid Mask on the wishlist. So we did, and regularly checked on the release date. At last we had a free weekend together, and cracked the game (3 achievements missing...) in 16 hours. The story was really great, everything logically connected, every character with unique quirks and traits. There was a stage where we had to ask everyone about everything, because sometimes the comments pushing the story forward were a bit unexpected. But once all clues were unlocked, in the endgame, all started to fall into place in the most satisfying and logical way, leaving no loose ends. Really wholesome and touching experience, for something disguised as a "detective game". My kid already asks about the next part!
I really enjoyed this installment of Detective Grimoire franchise, the team definitely went above and beyond with the game design on this one. The characters, the story, the puzzles, the art - everything was great and all of it fit together really nicely. I kinda missed combining suspect statements into the story of the murder like we did in Tangle Tower, but the fact we address the characters and their misconceptions with facts this time felt really good to finish the game off. Totally recommend, whether you're starting off with this game or returning to the franchise after having played the previous games.
I've loved this game series the moment i played tangle tower, i have been so excited to play this game ever since it was announced and i can confidently say this game is a incredible sequal to the original, the story and characters were all so well done! i love each and every one of them, the character were all so unique and beautifully animated, the twists and truths that are discovered in the story were so well crafted and shocked me everytime, the puzzles were fun and brain testing, and loved figuring out the mystery along side sally and grimoire! hope in their next case they finally get paid! over all, my expectations for this sequal were absolutly met, as Wirman put it, it can be daunting to make a sequal to a game that was already good, the pressure to top your previous work can feel impossible, but everyone on the game studio team made it possible, and whatever you make in future i will be sure to tune in again everytime! thank you!
