Jan. 2026

It's absolutely clear that a lot of love and work went into the look and feel of this game. The design of the characters and the environments are all amazing, the animation is top notch, and the music really hits + fits perfectly to the atmosphere the whole game exudes. The gameplay also just feels very clean and satisfying to interact with. Besides that, the dialogue itself also is well written and can be really funny (while perhaps for me personally a bit too much yappies at times). With all this I think this game had a wonderful foundation to be a great detective mystery game. Unfortunately, the "mystery" is where for me some of the game's cracks started to show. Most of the puzzles and deductions felt a little too easy and there was a bit too much hand-holding overall. While I still had a lot of fun theorizing and figuring out what happened throughout the game, it felt quite unsatisfying that when it came to the actual "solving" part, the answers ended up being quite obvious a lot of the time. The ending also felt rushed and was perhaps the weakest part of the whole game. Motivation felt a bit vague, certain hints ended up leading to nothing, and a lot of important questions were completely unanswered. So when the credits started rolling I was left with a feeling of underwhelm, confusion, and as if i just completely missed something. While it ended up being hard for me to actually recommend the game, I do ultimately think it is worth playing just to appreciate the creative labour that went into it! And I would still be excited for any potential sequel :D

Interesting game. It has no real difficulty as the mini games are logical and even if you struggle, mildly brute forcing them is possible. The investigation and hypothesis confirmation parts are also quite straight forward. The graphics are shiny and unique in a pleasing way. Each location felt like a painting that took life. The characters are beautifuly animated. The ambiance and event sequencing gave me Agatha Christie vibes. The music had something from the White Lotus at some moments. The first half of the game took me the most time, but suddenly everything speeds up and there is almost no room left for errors. The chapters unveil themselves while the player barely does anything. I wish the game was longer and the end of the story was a bit more fleshed out. I felt slightly frustrated at the end, as if I had an excellent appetizer that left my hunger unappeased. It still means the world building, artistic direction and mechanics were doing something right.

This is such a great game filled with charm. When I bought this game I did NOT expect the fully voiced cast, animated character portraits and a fantastic bgm at all. I mean WTH I stopped playing Silksong to finish this game. Was a good distraction from getting mauled by the Savage Beastfly. Fuck that guy. Ahem, getting sidetracked here. Apparently, Tangle Tower is a new installment from an already beloved franchise Detective Grimoire. From what I understand there are a few flash games and another steam game prior to this (already bought the prequel, looks almost as good as this one). This is a must play from Detective Game lovers/ Point & Click lovers/ Anyone who enjoys good art at all. The whole game was almost perfect, with no filler at all. had a solid 6 hours of enjoyment for dirt cheap. It is QUALITY, truly. Need to find more games like this. The ending was a tiny bit unsatisfactory though....not weak writing, but leaves us wanting more....I do hope they resolve the lingering threads in the next installment (PLEASE let there be a next installment). 10/10 recommended. HIGHLY recommended.

This game is a real gem. It has incredible charm in its artwork, sounds and writing and the amount of effort put into it is very impressive. The detective work is light but engaging and the game has a nice pacing between gathering clues, solving self-contained puzzles and answering little 'mini-mysteries'. My only big con relates to the final act and the actual murder mystery you are investigating. As a mystery story this game falls flat in the final act. It feels much more rushed than the rest of the game, and the final reveals are, simply put, quite bad. The presentation of the final clues and the motives just do not make any sense, and many questions are left unanswered as the game just ends rather abruptly. However, it's a solid 5 hours of great fun, and the ending does not negate that, even if it leaves behind a somewhat disappointing ultimate mystery.

Feb. 2025

This was a really interesting murder mystery puzzle game. Everything is fully voiced, and the voice acting is very good. You meet many colourful and bizarre characters, and you can question everyone about everything. Every scene has a lot of things you can look at and interact with, there are lots of hidden clues to find, and there are puzzles interspersed throughout the scenes, which are fiddly enough to get you thinking, without being too taxing to solve. I particularly enjoy the "suspicion" scenes where you have to assemble a sentence explaining why something is suspicious. Because it's assembled from short phrases, the main characters will voice any combination you pick, so you can have them say some very dumb things. Overall a solid 9/10 in my book.
