This was really fun. Such a simple idea, and the game engine technology was so obviously just waiting for an idea like this. I think a lot of the writing was pretty great, with some exceptions. Good puzzles. I don’t think it’s much more than the sum of its parts though, despite what the game kind of implies. Why does everyone have to try to make their game so “woahhhh”, it’s good just as a simple game!! Anyways, definitely worth checking out.

I picked this up on the Steam Summer sale for under $5, and yet the normal price of $6.99 is already an absolute steal for how enjoyable this game is. Each level presents you with a 5-15 minute audio clip of a mystery you can only solve by listening carefully to dialogue between characters and the background side effects. This isn't done in a dull way, however, as you actually have a character you use to move around from room to room in order to listen to different voices throughout the map. I ended up filling several pages of notebook paper with notes before actually solving each mystery, all written so cleverly that you may think you've solved it while missing one big secret twist. It's a treat for the senses and I highly recommend it!
