About
In the pitch-black waters beyond a long-abandoned fishing town, the enigmatic captain of the world's strangest submarine has been murdered. Some say he was an immortal time-traveller. Others say he was a vampire, cursed to stay hidden beneath the waves forever...
Found alone in a locked room, with only an ancient stone cauldron to suggest how he might have died, it's up to Detective Grimoire and Sally to piece together what really happened. Was it a curse, released from the cauldron? One of the submarine's eccentric crew? Or does the bizarre truth run even deeper...
• Every clue is a fully realised 3D object waiting to be examined for hidden secrets
• Grimoire and Sally are back, and joined by a fully voiced cast of mysterious suspects
• A hauntingly beautiful original soundtrack performed by the Budapest Art Orchestra
• Explore every hand-painted inch of The Mortuga Submarine, where not all is as it seems...

1 hour in and they've retained much of the charm and managed to endear me to the new characters that made me adore Tangle Tower. Loving the setting and eager to see where it goes!
I don't usually leave review when finishing a game, but the puzzle, the investigation, the story, and the final reveal is just incredible. I am drawn to the game all the 10 hrs I played it.

So worth the wait! This game is INCREDIBLE! I love all of the Detective Grimoire games, and this one had me hooked right from the start. I love how unique the puzzles are and how I felt so accomplished after solving them. 10/10 amazing amazing game!

I love the series and was so excited for this release. The character designs are so whimsical and eye catching. The animations are smooth and the voice actors bring the characters to life so well. The soundtrack adds so much to the atmosphere as well. I find the puzzles really hit that sweet spot of being engagingly challenging without being frustrating. It's just a fantastic addition to the series and I adore being able to see the artwork after completing the game.
Dearest reader, I must inform you of a great sequel of Detective Grimoire in which another killer has to be identified. Me and my girlfriend loved the story, graphics and voice acting. We have been waiting for this sequel to be released since we played Tangle Tower and have not been let down. All the characters had a unique personality that contributed to the depth of the story. Aside from talking with all the people there are also some mini games which we thought to be well balanced in difficulty. It didn't took too long to figure them out but they were no puzzles done in two seconds. The story was very well thought through and had a surprising plot twist. Overall I'd love to say, please SFB Games, continue the series! Detective Grimoire and Sally need to get another adventure and another chance to show their great humor!
10/10 game, it is truly amazing, I will avoid spoilers in this review because you simply must go into it blind, I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. The story is great, the culprit caught me completely off guard but it was believable, which if you like murder mysteries you´ll know that´s hard to find. Grimoire and Sally are as funny as always, the suspects are incredibly charming, the voice acting is spectacular, the writing manages to balance funny moments with the more serious aspects of the game, and don´t even get me started on the art. Seriously, the animation is incredibly smooth, the clues are incredibly well made, and the backgrounds are so gorgeous it feels like a visual orgasm every time I enter into a new room, the artstyle, the colors, everything about the art in the game just shows how much care got put into it. It is the sequel of a sequel (triquel?) and I do recommend playing Tangle Tower, the second game in the trilogy, first. since the first one is old and it shows. Tangle Tower was my first introduction to these games and it was very good, and you don´t really need the first game, Secret of the Swamp, to understand it, but there are multiple references to Tangle Tower in this game
just as good, if not better, than Tangle Tower. The voice acting and writing especially are just incredibly well done
