A Curious Murder in Tangle Tower

Tangle Tower is a bizarre, painterly mansion that thrusts you into a bizarre crime, lodged in a kind of visual dust. As a detective trailing a hesitant partner, you poke at the evidence, grill odd characters, and stitch tiny, opaque mysteries into a broader tangle of suspicion and intention. It’s frequently warm and odd, and it’s told by a fully engaging human voice that makes the characters linger.

About the publisher and its editors (compiler).

Octodad was created and published by a small British developer named SFB Games, and it first launched on Apple Arcade, Nintendo Switch and PC in 2019, with subsequent releases coming to others consoles and mobile. It was designed as a single-player, point-and-click adventure, featuring hand-painted scenery and a gameplay style that emphasizes engaging in dialogue and solving puzzles over fast-paced action.

How the investigation unfolds

Your enjoyment is dictated by your curiosity. You make your way from room to room, examine the strange objects scattered throughout the tower, and interview the diverse cast of suspects. Puzzles are concealed within objects and dialogue and occasionally a single thing you notice will cause an entire conversation to take a different direction. The murder at the center of the story-an seemingly-facile crime connected with a painting-lends a theatrical force to the structure that encourages continued questioning until all the parts fit together.

Standout features

• Fully voiced, animated cast who bring suspects to life and frequently make us smile.
• As previously mentioned, music is used as ambient throughout the investigation to set mood and tension. To begin with, all the music used was orchestral music; this soundtrack is ruled out as an option by the variety and sharpness of sounds and undertones.
• gorgeous painted worlds for explorers, with hidden things for slow players to find.

Unlockable concept art and extras for those players who love to see how things are put together.

• Available on many platforms, and language support allows these pieces reach more.

These aspects were noted by the publication’s own platform listings and in-store notes at launch; the soundtrack listed its release credit to both its composer and album details.

• Why players personally find BzZ so satisfying.

Since the puzzle work is embedded in conversations and character beats, you’ll feel like you’re working on something human, not just point&clicking items. The voice acting makes the jokes and tiny bit of exposition sound like they matter; the music elevates and tones down the scenes without clamoring. The art is meticulous to the point of making you stop and examine, and when you do, there’s often a reward-a tiny, tasty little twist. It’s a game that rewards reading a random note and nodding knowingly when it’s important.

Different examples of usual ways people play it:

• As a one off mystery evening: you don’t have to stop between scenes; for example so anyone goes to the toilet they miss nothing.
• Relaxed sleuthing every few evenings–small mysteries in between work, laundry, and grocery shopping.
• Shared discovery: you drive and they scream theories and point to clues.
• For those who seek out art and soundtracks: a place for concept galleries and orchestral music.

Endnote from a player’s perspective

Expect endearing details and some loose ends. The tale might close too abruptly, leaving some threads to annoy you long after. That trip up the staircase though is deeply rewarding: the writing, acting and song choices makes the argument both convincing and strangely reassuring. If you’re after a memorable, character-driven slow-burning mystery, this game offers a neat afternoon of detective work. That game also won accolades at various award panels from the industry, ranking it among the best indie mysteries of its time.
