90 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe game's story is generally described as cute and charming, with a unique premise involving a ghost solving her own murder, but many players feel it lacks depth and suffers from a lackluster ending. While the art style is praised, the narrative is often seen as short and unfinished, leaving players wanting more substance and resolution. Overall, the story is enjoyable for a quick playthrough, but it is marred by gameplay issues and a sense of missed potential.
“I loved this little gem and the story brought a single tear to my eye - the only problem is the slightly janky controls but this can be overlooked for an overall great experience.”
“Boodunnit is a very cute story game where you, as a ghost, come back from the afterlife in order to solve your own murder.”
“The overall art style and aesthetic of the game is gorgeous, the storyline is intriguing and kept me interested, so that alone would make me recommend.”
“The game is also incredibly short with the story being incredibly unfinished.”
“Honestly, it still blows my mind that with that many play testers, these issues weren't caught and reported to the devs or that no feedback was given about the story of the game which is supposedly a whodunnit mystery but pulls an answer out of nowhere that is quite literally unsolvable.”
“The story was rather bland and felt very unrewarding.”
