Uplifting and humorous, May 7, 2022by msj A delectable foray into the minds of others, and a send-up of the genre. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No Remove vote | Add a comment

A little Tex Murphy, a little Sam & Max, June 30, 2019by deathbytroggles (Minneapolis, MN) I've always been a sucker for hardboiled detective stories, especially when they are self-aware. Detectiveland is a straight send up of the genre written in a Twine-like parser that only requires navigation of hyperlinks (including an extensive inventory). Everything is here: the embittered detective, sleazy law enforcement, speakeasies, powerful dames, and cheesy dialogue. The graphics and music also fit the mood, though I turned off the music after a while due to its repetition. The fourth wall is frequently broken and I smirked a good dozen times while playing. I also appreciate that the narrator has more modern sensibilities when it comes to feminism and race issues. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No Remove vote | Add a comment
