Return of the Obra Dinn review
A beautifully constructed and powerfully atmospheric mystery that you really have to work to solve.

Return of the Obra Dinn breaks the mold of the gaming medium as an enthralling first-person mystery adventure with overtones of Edgar Allan Poe. This is an extraordinary conjunction of cerebral puzzle, supernatural nautical tale, and ornate art direction.
