    It may take you several playthroughs to discover who did, in fact, press mute on Uncle Marcus. But hopefully you’ll be engaged enough to keep playing until you find out. Who Pressed Mute on Uncle Marcus? feels like a return to form for Good Gate Media. It’s fun, silly and entertaining – and even when the acting is a bit hammy, it’s good enough that it’ll keep you watching. It’s more fun than an actual Zoom family quiz, that’s for sure.

    If you are looking for a game with a lot of substance, then Who Pressed Mute on Uncle Marcus isn’t the game for you. But, if you want to kill a few hours trying to solve a mystery, then you can do a lot worse than trying to save your favorite uncle.

    Who Pressed Mute on Uncle Marcus? has some good moments and some great performances. Unfortunately this short effort is kind of hamstrung by a mystery that requires a level of repetition to truly crack. Whilst it's nice they've accounted for this with additional scenes and dialogue, the end result is something that is just a little irksome.

    Very basic story without huge tension
    Acting is ok though
    Overall definitely one of the studio's worse games
