While there is a strong difficulty spike near the end of the game, it provides a number of accessibility options. It can even be played entirely blind thanks to a recent update!

    The game runs smoothly on Switch, looking particularly gorgeous on the OLED screen. It has optional touch screen controls and a generous hint system styled after Professor Layton. Combat is entirely optional, as is the drive for its multiple endings. One ending alone clocked in at 13 hours. The script is entirely voice acted, and is not at all patronising, while simultaneously not being too complex to understand.

    The mark of a great game is one that makes you wish to immediately play it again upon completion. This is exactly how I felt upon reaching my first ending of Brok. I plan to keep coming back and get them all, as I know for a fact I will have even more fun doing so.    … Expand

    Brok the Investigator is a true original. It’s a hodge-podge of point-and-click, side-scrolling beat-‘em-up, visual novel, and find-the-object. Most of the time, these disparate ideas sit slightly awkwardly alongside one another, but despite a slow start we did eventually feel a little spark and the whole thing became more than the sum of its parts. It's all the more impressive given that it's just the second game from a one-person studio. Graphic adventure fans should absolutely consider thoughtfully pointing and clicking it onto their wishlist – or just drop-kicking the heck out of the buy button.
