Great detective game
Clever gameplay mechanics make being a detective challenging yet approachable, with a well-balanced series of puzzles and a peculiar but highly compelling story. Excellent graphics.

Logic Puzzles on a Boat
This game is a mystery presented in a black-and-white 3D style. It is essentially a longform logic puzzle, but has a fascinating story that only gets uncovered through examining the deaths of the crew members of the ship the Obra Dinn. The game forces players to use their wits and examine all of the clues, written, audio, and visual, as well as the process of elimination to solve it. It never felt like I was totally stuck because the game had a mechanic of telling you which ones are correct after three correct guesses, meaning new information was always being given and if necessary, brute force educated guesses could work to get to the next step. If you enjoy puzzles and unique story and artwork, this game is for you. If you aren't jazzed about puzzles, the story is still good but you might not love this one.
