    I had legitimately enjoyed playing it. This has somehow become one of my favorite games, and I couldn't be happier about that.

    A fun point & click adventure that mainly stands out due to its visual style, it's humor, a great story and some good puzzles. You'd think that this would make for a classic game in its genre but unfortunately there is too little freedom in accomplishing the in-game goals. Technical hiccups interrupt the game on occasion, which is too bad.

    Wailing Heights’ presentation is perfectly in-tune, but its gameplay is out of time. While it neatly repurposes some old point-and-click tropes, it doesn’t quite have enough quality to match the ambition of the classics it’s so clearly inspired by. There are some laugh out loud moments and some real ear-worm audio, but it’s not quite enough to demand front-row seats for The Deadbeats’ reunion tour.

    Game was something new as a point and click game. You will be switching bodies which was the best part of the game. However, other things likeGame was something new as a point and click game. You will be switching bodies which was the best part of the game. However, other things like not able to explore more or the music itself (I just don't like it) or the final boss fight gave me a WTF impression. Expand
