Case Closed

Slow, can't save the game, and the valve puzzle in the sewers is broken. Rating: ★☆☆☆☆

The entire game is glitchy and it feels unfinished.

7/10 Seashells. Case Closed was a smooth sailing puzzle game. It was knotted together very well with memorable graphics and immersive music with great sound effects. I started off in uncharted territory and was a little lost. One of the few things I would change is being able to do puzzles in any order. We do get a task tracker but in certain scenarios our task was still unclear. For example, when I was fixing the sewer pipes they had to be done in a specific order, which was not communicated to the player. Mechanic wise, Case Closed had a bit of a leaky hull’. I got soft blocked with some of the puzzles in the sewer and police station, which made me salty. For example, I was unable to exit the pinboard in the police station and had to close the application from the steam application. I was forced to shut down the game which completely restarted it. A way to save waypoints would be neat however, I kept replaying from the start as the puzzles were fun and repeatable enough. But some sailors may be upset by this. In all ends, Case Closed was worth setting sail for. It is a classic murder mystery with punishing squalls and fun, easy puzzles.

Recommended if you get trapped in a dark room with nothing but a PC with this installed.

after playing this game I am going to edit this review to a positive. I love this game very much, I wish that there was more story to it, pls make more story!!! one or 2 bugs that need fixing, mainly the pipe rotating but not showing rotating in the sewer. Its worth a try but definitely feels unfinished.

poorly made; in the basement section, if you put in the code from the previous section, the game glitches and will not let you progress. in the sewer section, when you try the pipe puzzle, you cannot exit out of it to go check the code again, leaving you with no choice but to exit the game, which restarts the entire run. could be fun with a few bug fixes
