The Mermaid Mask

Forse il miglior gioco a cui io abbia maigiocato. Tangle Tower mi era piaciuto molto, ma questo è un capolavoro. La storia e il modo in cui viene raccontata è bellissima. I dialoghi sono molo divertenti (per quello che è il mio senso dell'umorismo ho AMATO Sally). I minigiochi, seppur più difficili rispetto a Tangle Tower (a mio avviso molto semplici, quindi un miglioramento) sono fattili e stimolanti. Le animazioni e il doppiaggio sono fatti da dio. Unica cosa alcuni giochi di parole non sono traducibili in italiano, ma a me è fregato poco. Detto ciò a mio avviso questo gioco vale ogni singolo centesimo che costa. Il finale è veramente bello, ho quasi pianto. Aspetto con ansia, se mai ci sarà, un gioco successivo.

Whatever grievances I had with Tangle Tower, this game fixed them. Although maybe perhaps too big in scope (the game jokes about it too), it's actually incredible how good the production as a whole is. Flavorful designs and animations, incredible voice work and dialogue, and I quite enjoyed the puzzles and environmental design. I will say that, while Tangle Tower ended too abruptly, this one was the opposite, where the final act felt a little too stretched out, and we were more so being told the story rather than having figured it out ourselves. However, it was still an incredible experience, and I loved going through each possible dialogue and clue piece. Would absolutely recommend.

A delightful game and a more than worthy follow up to Tangle Tower. Highly recommed it to anyone interested in Detective and Mystery games.

Music, amazing. Voice acting, amazing. Design, gameplay (for the most part) all amazing. The story? So much doesn't add up and so much left unanswered or not satisfactorily explained. Some of the explanations make no sense, others the story POINTS OUT, then never follows up on. It feels like so many story plots and concepts were abandoned half way through or they changed their mind and just... kept the original bits, but then changed things later in the story. Continuity is a mess, story beats are a mess, and nothing makes sense if you think about it for more than a minute. We started by being so excited as we played (even mapping out characters, the whole Pointer/Fellow/Remington family trees and writing out any names we recognized or wanted to follow up on) but as things continued we got more frustrated with how nonsensical everything is, especially for what happened when (in the past and in the actual what happened before/during/after the murder). I wish they has spent a little more focus on making everything fit together, but much like Tangled tower, the actual reasons for the murder and motivations of people involved were quite lack luster. Still not a bad puzzle game, just don't play specifically for the story or you may be disappointed.

Puzzles make a lot of sense and dialogue/characters are all great. If you liked tangle tower even a little you'll love this
