Our Verdict:
Detention is a marvel of sight, sound, gameplay and storytelling; a highly atmospheric horror adventure that manages to accomplish more in its short playtime than some games twice its length.
The Good:
- Deep, layered story
- original setting with beautiful 2D graphics
- simple, elegant controls
- effective dream world puzzle implementation
- masterful use of sound.
The Bad:
- A save-anywhere feature would have been appreciated
- finale stretches on slightly too long.
