"Twilight Syndicate" is a mediocre attempt to make a side scrolling "film noir" detective story from Brazil. The plot follows a cop in Interpol chasing criminals, which involves gathering clues, clicking around on the screen, and trying to find a big bad guy called "The Gentleman". Well, I'm spooked. The quality is particularly poor and the visuals are an eyesore. There's an overwhelming amount of mediocre Visual Novel/E-book style cutscenes in this game. The developers failed one of the most basic, fundamental requirements of game design.. "Show, don't tell." So you'll spend a huge amount of time not playing the game, but clicking through endless lines of poorly written VN text cutscenes because the developers couldn't work out how to relate their narrative through the game mechanics, and decided instead it would be better to compete with reading a book for your time.

What initially appears to be a minor clue soon reveals itself as the first thread in a much larger web of criminal activity. As a newly recruited Interpol agent, the player must investigate a series of interconnected cases, each revealing more about the syndicate’s influence and reach. Along the way, players encounter suspects, informants, and potential allies, each of whom …

Tried to solve a case “randomly” - didn’t work. Tried paying attention - got hooked. Great sign when a game rewards analysis instead of mindless clicking

Not perfect, but a sincere and engaging detective game. I’m satisfied.

At first I thought it’d be just another indie puzzle… and then I sank into it for a couple of hours. Turns out the investigations are genuinely engaging!!!!
