I just finished Necrologium, and I had a really good time with it. Yes, it’s a short game, but it was genuinely fun from start to finish. The mix of story, investigation, and puzzle solving kept me engaged the whole time. Examining the bodies, looking for clues, and slowly piecing together what happened to the victims was really satisfying. I also have to admit something: I weirdly enjoy autopsy games. Maybe that’s my slightly morbid side talking… haha. But this one really scratched that itch. The atmosphere is dark and mysterious, and uncovering each character’s story made the investigation feel meaningful. The puzzles were enjoyable and fit nicely with the narrative, and I liked how the investigation slowly revealed the bigger picture. My only “complaint” is that I simply wanted more of it. I would absolutely play a longer version or even more cases in the future. Short, but definitely worth the experience if you enjoy story-driven mystery and investigative puzzle games.4 found this helpful
Felt like (particularly for the selection of the "sin" of the victim and some of the wording of the motives) there wasn't enough information provided for it to feel like detective work rather than guessing and conjecture.
A very cleverly done game, with the right amount of struggle but also enough ''suggestions'' to help get you by, gets you thinking. Would play again if I didn't remember it.
Very well made! Great story to dive into and unravel. The playtime is super doable and the mechanics and logic behind the investigation surely isn't too difficult. Glad I experienced this little indie gem!
The game does have some interesting aspects, such as the attempt at an engaging narrative, the fairly well-crafted plot, the setting and the blend of the occult and forensic pathology. However, there are major flaws, one of which is the game’s length; it is too short and rushed. While there are certainly things I liked, I think a game of this kind should be explored in greater depth and be more complete and complex. Alternatively, if it is to remain as it is, it should be free. I recommend it if you want to satisfy your curiosity without having too many expectations.
Short and fun experience. Big kudos for the vibe - the graphics, animations and music work together perfectly. Highly recommend it if it’s on sale.
