As always this Dev makes such BEAUTIFUL and sinister pixel art and really drives home the ambience of their games!!! I would recommend this but after playing some of this dev's newer games first this one left me feeling like i wanted more than it gave. Grizzlyman is way more polished than this one, but i still found it charming and enjoyable overall. So just take with a grain of salt if you're playing this one after Grizzlyman. If you want to play more from this dev you definately will enjoy them as they improve over time! Mothman believes in you~!

The best way to describe playing Mothmen 1966 is, it's like one of those eerie lucid dreams that is strangely enough, reassuring to compel you to keep going, then you wake up and you're left with, what I call, "the eerie cozy".

Wow, so this is Pixel Pulp, eh? It's something between a comic and an interactive puzzle. It's a very short experience, but very well drawn. This can easily be played in a single sitting over a period of about an hour or two. In the time it'd take to watch a cheesy Netflix film you can experience MOTHMEN 1966. The story is absolutely bonkers. I mean, the plot all over the place. There are no answers here, only questions, all the way through. Playing the game is almost like watching an episode of Twilight Zone or something, except there's no narrator who can try to make sense of it all. There are a few sections in the game where you're tasked with a puzzle or challenge and it takes very straightforward logic to figure it out. The game is forgiving in this way, in that you'll die a lot but it's very easy to just go back and try again. I failed a lot of times at different challenges, but trying them to completion never seemed too frustrating of a task. I thought it was neat but the story is just all over the place. It's extremely pulp. It's like, there's a mothmen part, but then there's this whole other side plot about weird guns and strange grandmothers and abusive relationships..and each are just as important as the other within this crazy plot. I liked it all, the graphics, the experience, etc and I can even go with the pulp of it all because I have a large collection of EC Comics, Eerie comics, Creepshow comics at home, but even I have a hard time coming to terms with *all of these crazy things all happening at once*. This is the first in a series of Pixel Pulp games here on Steam, and I played this one first after reviews showed it to be the roughest of the three. But the art is real impressive. Anyway, thumbs up.

Hello, here are my thoughts for this piece. Mothmen 1966 is a great narrative adventure, that takes place in ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ during 1966. You play as three characters, changing the perspective as the story advances. It's a very unique approach to visual novels. The game follows an understandably cryptic plot, and you are challenged throughout by unique and difficult puzzles. However, the game has flaws. For one the plot is well very deep, and you explore it well, it's paced horribly. This pacing issue continues into the puzzles. Both the plot and puzzle difficulty advances at an unyielding and incredibly fast pace. This game should have been given more time then what it has. There are sequences, where the writing borders on the edge of annoying, and not in a well written annoying character way. The puzzles go from very easy at first, to far more complex almost instantly, and do not maintain a curve of difficulty. I was able to get each one without looking up the answer, so they are very doable for a skilled puzzle solver. I would recc the game if you're interested in taking a dip into the Mothmen myths, but not if you're in for the novel aspects. Certainly, if you're in for an intermediate level puzzle game. It also has an incredible UI.
