Very challenging, but fun, puzzle game. If deciphering an unknown language sounds like fun to you, this game is a great purchase.

The concept of the game sounds fantastic, but the general lack of polish is really distracting. Assets constantly clipping and floaty controls.

Absolutely fun to play, with great writing and a great story. I'm glad the writers didn't feel tied too much to the movies, and blended the movies and comics more to give us something both different and closer to the comics.

I love all the little conversations that the characters constantly have, and what could easily be annoying in other games is a lot of great team interactions in this one. In general, with some of the dialogue choices, I see this game as something Telltale might've made in an alternate universe where they continued to innovate and evolve from their base concept.

The major downside is, I wouldn't expect an award winning game like this to have so many graphical glitches. I guess that's why the award is for the soundtrack.

I'm not really sure why this should be considered a worthwhile sequel. Sure, there's more jobs, some slightly different mechanics, and you can be gay, but the games are criminally short and repetitive. No, multiple boards locked behind the season pass do not make that better. Why would I pay $6 each for more boards when the base game only has one short board? Bought the game hoping it would a really interesting sequel to one of the more classic board games out there. Instead I got a mobile game ported to Steam.

Incredibly boring. If you're just looking for some paint-by-numbers, sure, this is fine. For me, I needed SOMETHING more out of it. Some sort of puzzle, like Picross.

A big giant "meh". The lore isn't interesting enough to keep me hooked when I do find it, and overall it just ends up being kind of boring.

Three hours to beat the main story, and wow is that a weird ride. Definitely recommend checking it out when it's on sale for when you want an afternoon of "Wtf?!".

With a brilliant soundtrack and fun characters, I absolutely recommend this game. Everything in the environments of this game behave in accordance to the beat of the music, and it's executed really well.

The story is fine. Nothing groundbreaking, but it doesn't need to be. The writing is still solid, and the puzzles are well crafted and appropriately challenging. Give this game a shot for something fun and different.

It's solid, simple, fun, and that's about it, but that's a really good thing here. This game doesn't need to be anything else, and it shines at what it does. Definitely worth relaxing with this game for a few hours.

An absolutely fantastic point-and-click adventure that features a famous lineup of voice actors and a well-written story, this game is definitely worth your money if you're a fan of the genre. It stays simple, and avoids the common trap that point-and-clicks fall into of having the solutions to puzzles be really bizarre combinations of your inventory items that no sane person would've thought of.

For the writing alone I would recommend this game, but everything else about it is brilliant too.
