The Mermaid Mask

Endlessly charming, stylistic and incredible art, impeccable voice acting and a great point-and-click detective game with minor puzzles and SO. MUCH. DIALOGUE. Which never feels like a slog because of aforementioned great qualities. These are all things that the Detective Grimoire games have always had. The sequel does not shy away from being absolutely gorgeous, being funny with its duo of detectives, being emotional gripping with its suspects, and with its mysteries being captivating to explore and understand. Now with 3D models and a slightly longer game time (at around 10 hours). And so the question is: Does it improve upon the very obvious shortcoming of its predecessor, and for that matter, is it even necessary to play it, Tangle Tower, if it is? The answer is that it is absolutely better than Tangle Tower by a long shot, yet you still must play Tangle Tower before it. There are certain moments in this game that get your eyes wide open as it calls back to things in Tangle Tower that you simply can't understand nor enjoy without knowing. They aren't necessary per se to enjoy The Mermaid Mask, but you will lose a decent bit of emotional understanding without experiencing all the additional information from Tangle Tower. As for the improvements, this game has by far the best finale of all the Detective Grimoire games, which was the sticking point of Tangle Tower. The build up to its story is well-done, and it absolutely nails the climax too. Its culprit is by far the most well-executed of the three, and that's including Secret of the Swamp too, and the crime and motive definitely makes the most sense too. It's also reasonably solvable before the final act, although you wouldn't be able to figure out all of its mysteries so easily either, while also still resolving pretty much every single thing in the game. Aside from the lingering mystery beneath it all of course. There's room for another sequel here, but time will tell if SFB Games will make it. I can see that the Grimoire games take a LOT of effort, but by god I would be so happy to see the conclusion of this mysterious throughline building through them. A perfect Detective Grimoire game I would say.

The mermaid mask se passa depois dos acontecimentos de tangle tower, e você descobre isso por comentários dentro do jogo e um cena final bem legal. O game segue o mesmo estilo de tangle tower, a forma de interrogar os personagens, examinar itens e tentar montar o quebra cabeça é basicamente a mesma coisa, além das piadas e referencias bem divertidas, é literalmente '' o mesmo jogo 2'' e isso não é ruim, já que o primeiro é incrível. Assim como no jogo anterior, vocês são chamados para investigar um assassino e tentar descobrir quem comenteu o crime e porque, nesse meio tempo você precisa encontrar pistas, falar com as pessoas e questionar elas sobre oque você encontrou para tentar conseguir as informações necessárias para montar o caso. O game tem vários puzzles para resolver e descobrir algum item ou informação, a maioria é bem simples de resolver, mas confesso que teve alguns que eu chorei um pouquinho, mas em nenhum momento foi algo ruim, a historia te prende o tempo inteiro, conforma você vai descobrindo novas informações, rapidamente você quer correr e questionar outro personagem para tentar descobrir mais coisas, é incrível. O game tem algumas referencias do jogo anterior que é bem legal, você não ter jogado não afeta a sua jogatina, mas se tiver jogado, seria bem mais legal. No mais eu recomendo tranquilamente esse game tanto para quem jogou o anterior quanto para quem curte um bom mistério, vale a pena demais e o final é bem surpreendente, o 100% é até que simples, mas se você perder algo, provavelmente vai precisar jogar tudo novamente já que não tem seleção de capítulos.

I'm no master detective. I just like seeing what each dialogue option says.

[h1]This game and Tangle Tower...[/h1] They both have great way with words. Like each sentence spoken, be it in conversation or item description everything is done with feels and outstanding quality. They can read me milk bottle plaquette and I would be impressed. To have all voice actors put life into their characters, animators and sound designers creating such synch is just insanity to me. Then soundtrack starts and it turns into magic again. You may not like riddle/talk type of games but you have to appreciate the world they are creating and the means they use to achieve their goals. Soul is a thing that is really hard to find in modern games.

It's clear from the overwhelmingly positive reviews the game already has that it is, in fact, a banger. I just wanted to add my own little bit of appreciation. So far, I've loved Crow Country, Detective Grimoire, Tangle Tower - and now, I'm glad to add The Mermaid Mask to the list of SFB Games that rule. The Mermaid Mask is well crafted. Everything from character designs, voice acting, animation, easter eggs, and soundtrack to writing is made with so much love and care for the final game. I love the submarine setting, and I think the game had the perfect group of eccentric strangers to make you fall in love with the Mortuga Submarine and its residents. If you love puzzle games, detective games, or maybe I should say- good games in general, then please try out The Mermaid Mask. It is a charming adventure that will take you around 13 (haha scary number) hours. And each hour is full of beautiful art, lovely writing, great sound, and delicious humor. Play The Mermaid Mask!

Utterly fantastic. Probably the best Detective Grimoire game yet Well written, consistently funny All the characters are unique and fleshed out with great voice acting across the board Most of the puzzles are completely original and fun with like 1 that i didnt really enjoy(typewriter puzzle) but most were fun to solve The setting, music, art, animations, for the characters are really well done and really immerse you in the game The core mystery is fun to solve and all the characters involvement in said mystery Get this if you like detective/puzzle games it is well worth your time Edit: getting all the achievements isn't TOO terrible, most of them you will get by just interacting with everything, but there are a couple MISSABLES so I would definitely look those up when you play this game, so you don't miss them and have to replay the entire game again. theres like 3 to look for and are not hard to achieve you just have to know when they are.

muito muito muito bom fechadinho, carismático, muito bem atuado, lindo, história gostosinha e puzzles faceis e divertidinhos de tempos em tempos para dar uma quebra no ritmo. por favor SFB games faça jogos infinitos para sempre
