Vous avez une heure pour interroger 6 personnages très ridicules (et un chat) et découvrir qui hérite les 4 objets dans le testament de Tatie Lucette. Il y a beaucoup à lire, donc ça m’a pris un peu plus qu’une heure (j’ai joué 2 fois pour trouver les bonnes réponses, la première m’a pris ~1h30). Le temps limité fait que tu ne peux pas demander toutes les questions, et c’est très improbable de trouver les bonnes réponses dans ton premier essai, mais si tu t’en souviens des indices tu peux tout résoudre en rejouant une fois. Le puzzle est simple, c’est pas un jeu de mystère ou il faut trouver des indices et réfléchir, c’est surtout juste drôle de parler aux personnages et voir leurs réponses absurdes. Mon personnage préféré est Dr. Maléfik >:)

Excellent puzzle game for fans of Obra Dinn, Case of the Golden Idol, The Roottrees are Dead, etc. I'm a huge fan of this genre, I love reading documents and looking things up to unearth all the various deaths. You also get to explore the abandoned movie studio to collect clues and experience a few eerie scenes there (very fun!)

There are 24 deaths and I got probably 18 before I started looking at hints. I don't think any of them were unfair, and they all could be solved without hints if you have a lot of patience with rereading the search results and searching every single name and movie title that comes up. (I don't have that kind of patience though, and I would've liked to have more hints! Finding the last few names gets a bit tedious and the hints are still too many steps away from the solution to really help.)

Overall I really liked it, great slightly spooky document mystery game. Also the letterboxd reviews are so fun :)

Tips if you play the game:

1. You can use SCORE to see if you've found all the documents/rooms
2. With the tempus you can TOUCH things. (Luckily the hints unstuck me on this eventually, but the whole time I was trying to "examine" everything under the influence of the tempus, when the verb I needed was "touch"!)
