An almost Rogue-like murder mystery with magic and randomization, February 4, 2016I've played through this game around a dozen without beating it, but it's just a lot fun. Once you've played through once, you can play through it super fast.
You are in a house with about six other people, all of whom have been invited to search for some lost treasure. Murders start happening, and you have to find the treasure and the killer.
The house has a ton of hiding places, with randomized stuff inside; there are around 4 different kinds of tools that you can use to open special hiding locations. At first, I kept restarting to get these tools, until I realized that you don't need to restart to get one of each tool.
There's a surprising backstory going on involving magic in the background. As usual for Emily Short, the story is intriguing, and involves a unique sort of magic.
It has overall a rogue-like feel. Good for fans of mystery or Rogue-likes.
