Cyanide Mysteries: The Curse of Little Witchell


Alright, played it through in one session - some light puzzling, a nice ah-ha moment, a few good - logical - and resolved - red herrings. Sort of multiple endings. Some light internet work with QR codes and a particularly nice BBC-style piece. They manage the neat trick of having time passing "in game" and the story and clues developing over time, whilst simultaneously giving you everything at once. You're not told explicitly what to do or when to move on, but it's very obvious and appreciated the fact it didn't lead me by the nose.

Made a ton of notes and enjoyed it, and well priced at fifteen quid -- I baulk at spending 25 on a similar level of content, I think this is pitched exactly right.




Interestingly enough it's been a year since I played this and they have released three more products since then -- I haven't been moved enough to buy them or even look at them, priced at 19, 19, 15 quid....need to rethink on how I perceived the value, because my comment it's worth 15 seems at odds with not actually buying the 15 quid one....
