BEST GAME EVER
The only reason it’s not 5 is because if your gonna make us buy the game just make it so we have to pay to play the game
Immersive and fun whodunnit!
First off, since others have commented about this I will just say that it should be pretty obvious this game is not free - it clearly displays “in app purchases,” and doesn’t charge outright because the developers are allowing you to trial the game by playing the first segment. This is not a free-to-play game model, and so of course they will need to charge money for the full game. Do you really think they can make great games like this absolutely free?
As for the game itself, this is a welcome addition to the “full-motion-video” genre (think similar to Her Story, At Dead Of Night, etc). While it’s a murder mystery, it’s also fun and a bit tongue in cheek at times (somewhat like Clue), and it has a fun and talented cast of eccentric characters where everyone has a motive. In this modern age of video-calls, it also works really well as a family digital “gathering” and feels very immersive.
I won’t say anything else about the story, but it’s a fun one, and the ending felt satisfying (and alternate endings were also entertaining). Expect to play it more than once, but the replay value is also high as you will uncover more secrets.
Overall a great game, and I hope we can expect more games like this in the future!
If your a whodunnit and/or Agatha Christie lover, you’ll love WPMOUM
Who Pressed Mute On Uncle Marcus or WPMOUM, if a choose your own adventure murder mystery made during pandemic. You play as Abby as she tries to figure out which one of her fellow family members poisoned her favorite uncle. The true ending is impressive, although I’m kinda bummed their was no post credits scene, that would’ve completed my day. After either choosing the right antidote and Marcus lives or choosing the wrong one and Marcus dies, you’ll have to use the evidence you gathered by your choices to find who’s innocent or guilty. My favorite character is Nan, who is very sweet and reminds me of my grandmother. So…Who Pressed Mute On Uncle Marcus? Was it Mum? Aunty June? Brandley? Toby? Lottie? Or is Marcus faking it?
