The Last Case of Benedict Fox is a neat little metroidvania. It's hard to recommend at $25, but I'd say it's reasonable between $5 and $15. I'd also say, this is a game made by a studio that hadn't built a game of this genre before and it kinda shows. It's a little rough around the edges on controls and a few bugs (after a few hours the game slows, likely a memory leak, a restart of the game fixes it). It's a little cumbersome where the map and pause menu is delayed and not really smooth the way the premium metroidvania games are. If you're hot off of Hollow Knight / Silksong, this is gonna feel *bad*. But if you can take it for what it is, it's all right. The approach to storytelling through a nightmarish Lovecraftian mindscape is pretty cool, it's a fun way to get a story told to you. The voice acting will feel stilted, the dialogue is simpler than the lore writing, but deep down it's a story about two parents and how they failed their son. I actually liked the puzzle elements more than the combat (I probably died less than 20 times across the whole game). If Plot Twist built another metroidvania focusing moreso on puzzle unlocks, I'd be a lot more interested. Consider buying on sale if you got an itch for this genre and have already played the greats, this one isn't in that list at all, but I've definitely touched worse.

A solid metroidvania! The map relies a bit heavily on fast-traveling, but it doesn't take away from the overall experience. Good fighting, gorgeous aesthetcis and a really tight story.

I will recommend this game, but know that there are many little annoyances that might make you want to stop playing. The game isn't bad, but it is bad at teaching you how to do things and what to do next. Right from the very beginning, it throws all kinds of things at your face, making it feel overwhelming, even though it isn't that complicated. Puzzles don't get explained on how to use your tools to solve them at all. You get some of the tools, feel like somethings still missing, keep exploring and eventually give up and look it up. But then you realize, you could have done the puzzle all along and just didn't understand that you could! Once you do know when to actually approach a puzzle, it becomes a lot better. But sadly the game doesn't give you that on its own. The combat in this game is pretty simple. It tries to give you these hard enemies and that hard first boss that will beat you up at first, however, once you're past the initial one and gotten some upgrades, the game gets easier and easier and combat will simply change to "how do I kill the enemies the quickest", instead of "how do I even beat this enemy" You feel really powerful really quickly imo. I like the way the map is designed, but I do feel like it sometimes has too many empty rooms and pathways. Sometimes, you can already get to certain rooms, which you will need to go to later, so they seem empty and the thing you need to get only spawns after you're far enough into the story. It always feels kinda bad to go through a section just to find nothing at the end. I wish that they would at least show these spots on the map. All kinds of things are marked on the map, which abilities you need to go further, but some very minor small things, you need to collect SOMEWHERE in a huge section you've already been to, is pretty boring. It should at least be easier to find what you're looking for. I love metroidvania style games, but this one is so much more extreme in being confusing and letting you run around everywhere without knowing where to even go.. it.. sucks the fun out of it. I had to look up how to continue several times throughout my playthrough. Most of the time, it works no problem. But sometimes the story wants you to do one thing specifically and everything else doesn't matter until you did that one thing. I would probably have stopped playing this if it weren't for the internet and having maps and playthroughs available. Overall I liked the gameplay, the abilities and the story. It has a unique artstyle with lots of different lightings, though it does sometimes bug out and gets way too bright for a while in specific locations or cutscenes randomly.
