None of the puzzles are very taxing, but the concept is well-executed and well-explored. But still, I feel that the game never gave us the big puzzle that would mean going all over the mansion and utilizing all of your abilities and knowledge of the place all at once. Instead you just sort of solve the last few and that's that. Still, the story however is quite stellar with some very interesting twists and turns in the last thirty minutes that can really blow you away. I was extremely impressed. The soundtrack is rad too. Overall: 8\/10.. All in all it's good. But I would have liked a way to read the speech bubbles in time. Sometimes there's too much text to go through before it disappears. Also, I found the ending quite bland.. Not only is the party youre at stuck in a timeloop but the evil servants murder everyoneYour objective is to stop the murdering. However being in the same room with anyone else results in their demonmasks attacking you. Theyre no physical danger at all (unless you just stand there i guess) but stop time also so you cant just barge in to stop a murder - you need to be stealthy and influence things indirectly.Generally you first explore newly unlocked rooms and stalk the murderers and victims to find clues and items and then figure what to do. You can peek thru doors, hide in cupboards, stuff like that. You also get abilities like being able to lockpick or understand whispered conversations.Visual\/audio stuff is top notch, the Tim Burtony isometric style is very charming. Its not a very long game, you could probably subtract 2 hours or so from my playtime i just spent stalking everyone around - its alot more fun that youd think tho.Its a real shame that the game is rather easy. To be more clear, the "murder cases" arent that intricate or difficult to figure out, theres no real meat to chew. Only the very last victims to rescue required me to think about timing or positions of certain persons or doing things in a certain order (what youd expect from a groundhog day thing) with any real depth or urgency. Theres a really solid framework here, i feel alot of potential was wasted by just making it too easy.I still had alot of fun with it, its a good diversion for an evening or two. Before I gush about what I love about this game, there is one thing that I feel is important to understand going in. If you come in expecting deep, complex puzzles, with lots of time-travel trickery and tons of messing with cause-and-effect, you will be disappointed. To put it succinctly, the puzzles are completely wasted potential with a very good premise. The time travel mechanics are never used in any interesting ways, and every puzzle is almost totally confined to a particular wing of the mansion. They are exceptionally simple, with very straightforward solutions that you can sometimes even stumble across by accident before you've even figured out what you're supposed to be doing (as I did on two separate occasions in the game). The ones that are slightly less straightforward are all but spelled out explicitly in dialogue between characters. There was one murder in the entire game that took me more than two time loops to solve, and that was only because of a misunderstanding of one of the game's mechanics in the early game. So, why did I give the thumbs up to this game then, if the puzzles are not at all worthwhile? Because this game is not about its puzzles at all. Don't get me wrong- I would love to see a game like this where playing with time and keeping track of complex cause-and-effect relationships is emphasized. But in The Sexy Brutale, the puzzles are really just a vehicle to drive the story and exploration forward, and to that end they work fantastically. The game is at its absolute best when just exploring the mansion, tracking characters and listening to them, and watching the macabre events play out; the puzzles drive the story forward, but these activities are the soul of the game. First, the story. I can't say very much without delving into spoiler territory, but I will say this: the story is exceptional. It brilliantly sets up a tone of deep mystery from the get go, and with each case you solve it feels like the shadow hanging over this mansion and its guests only gets deeper and darker. The dialogue is well-written, and I always wanted to progress just to see what the heck was going on and where this all was leading. The ending was very powerful, and I found myself getting surprisingly emotional towards the end. I thought the story was extremely well-executed, and worth the investment.Part of what makes this story work so well is the exceptional atmosphere and tone of the game. The mansion is one of the most immersive game worlds I've seen in a while; it feels completely cohesive, and the balance between dark comedy, tragedy, and mystery is perfectly struck. The dialogue in the game feels organic and witty, and despite most of the characters only being present for short stretches of the game, they feel real and you come to like them. I would have liked to see a bit more interaction between them, but I enjoyed what was there a great deal; my favorites are the snarky staff members who are picking off all of these hapless guests. Also, an incredibly nice touch is that throughout the night, you can hear murders and events taking place in other areas of the mansion at certain times; some of them you haven't seen yet, leading you to wonder what the heck is happening elsewhere. The game's visual direction is fantastic. The mansion comes to life with lovingly crafted, surprisingly detailed environments. The characters are small but absolutely pop with personality, with small animation flourishes and expressive movements. The camera gets confusing at times, but the game's map is always there to set this right. Even the menus blend very nicely with the visual style of the game, never really taking you out of your immersion. If there's one aspect of the game that elevates everything else from good to great, it's the music. This is one of the best, most creative soundtracks I've heard in a long time. The music is jazzy and absolutely pops when wandering around and exploring. However, the music is also crafted to match the scene in each area, rather than just being a static loop; as the murder approaches, the music builds to a crescendo as the victim meets their end. The main theme that plays during the scenes that deal with the overarching story is also quite slick- calm and mysterious, imbued with a strong noir vibe. I think the music does a lot of the heavy lifting for the game's mood and atmosphere, and without the incredible soundtrack this would be a much lesser game. Overall, The Sexy Brutale gets a solid recommendation from me. When viewed primarily as a puzzle game, it is a total flop. However, when viewed as a story- and exploration-driven adventure game with light puzzles, it is a resounding success. A surprisingly affecting story, fantastic atmosphere, a lovingly crafted world, and a wonderful soundtrack all make this game a unique experience that is very much worth investing in.
