Freya Fellow has been murdered. And you’ve got a suspect, so you can probably wrap all of this up in a hurry. Except the suspect’s a painting. Which kind of puts a kink in your investigation.
Mystery adventure game Tangle Tower will have you looking into this strange murder, seeking evidence throughout a peculiar building as you struggle to figure out what really happened at the crime scene. Hopefully, some of the oddball folks hanging around the tower know something about what went down. And even if they don’t, you can always put your own puzzle-solving skills to work on the evidence and clues you find in the halls to see if you can come up with something on your own.
It may be easy to lose yourself in the gloomy beauty of it all as you seek the killer. The game is filled with striking places and vibrant, colorful characters that are fun just to look at. The visuals on the characters are especially appealing, with the animations giving them a great deal of personality and helping you to get a feel for who they are. It’s a lovely style that makes the characters’ smugness, cunning, and duplicity stand out all the more, offering a great gallery of potential suspects for you to mull over.
Tangle Tower aims to offer a challenging mystery to unravel, and a great group of potential villains for you to work through as you hone in on who committed the crime.
Tangle Tower is available now on the Nintendo Switch, Apple Arcade, and Steam.
