That not is easy to guess Tim. Is it a Sherlock Holmes game?

Not a Sherlock Holmes game, but it is part of a series, as another customer review points out:

The 'RPG' is still a crucial hint I think, since most people associate any japanese videogame with that term.
A game of japanese origin and a 'companion to the series' a.k.a. spin-off? Miles Edgeworth?

To help you on your way, a final snippet of a review. It's only a small part because otherwise it would contain far too much things for me to [censor]. Quote:

Nope. The number of series are getting smaller...

Yes, it was cunning ('cunning' as in Baldrick's 'cunning plan' ), but the word SARCASM completely gave the game away.
I utterly agree with the reviewers - the frantic one who couldn't stop resolving the mystery/playing DN and with the other one who immensely enjoyed Lewton & Co.'s endless streak of sarcasm and cynicism .

The only meaning of the word I ever use "cunning" for...

Myst-references, and an unusual main character...
Machinarium?

No, it's that game with the bug in it. Bad Mojo Redux. Because he said the game was originally released in [a much earlier date].
Last edited by tsa; 01-17-2012 at 03:51 AM. Reason: added the Redux part. |

No it isn't. Bad Mojo (Classic or Redux) has no bugs. Oh, wait, you mean the main character and his fellow cockroaches? BM is the only game full of bugs that isn't buggy . You got it. You didn't have to google it, I would except Bad Mojo (without Redux) as a correct answer (Classic and Redux are basically the same game, Redux only has more makup, lipstick and things). In case you're wondering about this - I was lying . As I already said: Everything is allowed in war, sex and quizes.

Myst definitely. I mean, what other game has really hard puzzles, little plot development (it was in the backstory and reading, which you probably didn't do reviewer,) and beautiful graphics?

You could have guessed it with only the first one Fanatasie . Your turn! Congratulations!
Edit: The second reviewer gave up after a few hours already, the LOSER! I've been stuck in an adventure game for over 20 years and I only gave up because my Commodore 64 died! |
