What players say
I love games, but every so often, one becomes my happy place. Something in the writing, the characters, the performances, the game play just inspires my imagination. Tangle Tower is one of those games. I wholly recommend the entire Detective Grimoire series!
2 more reviews
Great art, music, animations, and voice acting. I just wish the investigation was a bit more tricky to solve, right now it is very straightforward. Disappointed by the ending, I felt like the culprit's motive did not make sense. Other than that, very nice little game.
Great improvement from the previous game. The ending is not the most satisfying but it sets up for something bigger, like the loose ties in Detective Grimoire.
