Didn't expect such an engaging experience of playing a detective game and could manage to play multiple rounds - surpisingly good. for sure should get it during discounts.

We tried every path and had a lot of fun. Fun stories and options and a lot of varieties even within similar paths. If you like a bit over the top stories and acting you will love this!

Weird, Fun, and Surprisingly Engaging Who Pressed Mute on Uncle Marcus? is a murder mystery wrapped in a dysfunctional family Zoom call, and somehow... it works. The story is surprisingly engaging, with each character bringing their own brand of crazy to the table. It blends family drama with crime mystery in a way that keeps things entertaining — and sometimes downright ridiculous in a good way. Some endings come with plot twists that actually made me laugh out loud. The “true” ending especially felt like it came out of nowhere — no real buildup or foreshadowing — but that’s kind of the charm here. It’s less about a tight mystery and more about enjoying the chaos. Performance-wise, it runs just fine even on a low-end machine. The gameplay is simple — mostly dialogue choices — and after your first full playthrough, you’re able to skip unseen scenes, which helps a lot since some dialogue can drag. That said, unless you’re lucky or determined to explore every path, it’s nearly impossible to figure out the real culprit through deduction alone. If you can grab it on sale, go for it. It’s not groundbreaking, but it’s a fun little ride with some memorable moments.

This was absolutely hilarious, and every actor did a fantastic job of bringing their character to life! I greatly appreciated the livestreaming-friendly option of turning the timer off, which allowed me to stream this on Twitch much more easily and involve the chat in every decision. The story was engaging, and playing to the end and even working towards every steam achievement was deeply satisfying. My only word of caution is to take the content warning very seriously - the warning wasn't presented very sternly, and with the tone of the game it can slip your mind that there is at least one very dark scene in the game. Highly recommended, have fun! :D

Personally i felt more relaxed playing this game rather than Ten Dates or Five Dates even though comparing them is like comparing apples to peaches. Here you have to conduct an investigation among your family members during an online family meet with timer running out and find out who poisoned your Uncle. I failed on my first attempt. Will try to replay. It is a difficult game where you have to investigate with or without arousing suspicion. add - the game is oodles of fun, it involves choosing the dialogue while talking to your dysfunctional family members and uncovering the truth to save your uncle and find the killer. it needs several retries and cannot be done in one without blind luck though.
