Today’s game is some more The Darkside Detective. I was in call with a friend and finished it up today with him. I really enjoyed playing this, and i’m thankful i was gifted it, i don’t think i would have tried it other wise.
Overall for the game, Most of the puzzles were pretty straightforward. There was one i struggled with and it was the Christmas one. It was pretty open from the get go so i had trouble figuring out what all to do. Even then though there were maybe two hole puzzles i got stuck on.
The bonus one after that was pretty quick and straight forward which i liked. It gave a much needed breather after the difficulty of the last one and i got it done fast. I liked the puzzles in it, and the humor was great too.

Image I liked having to assemble the sausage rope. It’s a stupid joke but i thought it was funny and got a good laugh out of me.
Honestly a lot of the writing in general is really good. There’s one character who’s meant to be the Nepo bigshot Cop, and i like that they made him not only a dick, but a horrible person too. It really makes you feel a lot better about not liking how much of an asshole he is. It also makes you feel good about destroying his car.
The game ended with a teaser to the sequel, which i think I’ll pick up eventually because i really liked this game. It was a lot of fun and a good time. For anyone that likes point and clicks I’d say it’s at least worth checking out.

If you enjoyed this as much as I did, I strongly recommend looking into the “The Last Door” series.
