    It's a very solid point and click mystery game. Well the graphics are nothing special being bit instead of modern graphics that is part of its charm. It draws heavily from Lovecraft and many other supernatural and horror stories but with twist

    Point & Click Part 2! it gets even better! New cases, same old Detectives!

    You like Lucas Arts Adventures and Pixel Graphics from the 90s? Then this is your Game! Funny Characters and crazy Stories packed in an Film Noir like setting.

    A great revival of old point and click adventure games.
    Humour reminds of The Secret of Monkey Island saga.

    Awesome sequel to an awesome game. Same humor as the previous game. Lots of easter eggs and fun plot that ties together all 6 cases.

    Great little game - lots of fun and humor packed into a short amount of time. It's definitely worth a few hours of your time.

    This game is as good, if not better than the first game! The puzzles are great and good enough to keep you going. It never took me too long to figure out what to do when I was stuck. The story and humor is fun, I like the continuity of the stories. Really looking forward for the bonus cases to be released.

    :yellow circle emoji:. This is how the makers of Darkside Detective described their main cast in Emojis and that's all you need to know about the humor of the game. This game in an homage to the good old point&click adventures. you don't have to play the first part before this one, but it's helpful to understand the references.

    Even better than the original. Bit longer to finish the game. I think a little harder also. But again a very enjoyable experience.
