I have played this game countless times and everytime I come away feeling like this is just the epitome of what the Haunted Hotel series was. Its full of horror, incredible scenes and great sound design. Pairing a haunted hotel with a ruthless serial killer makes for a great plotline. Its simply perfect.
Maybe im just a sucker for this series, but I really do love the vibe of GrandMa games. the music and style is very fitting. While its not the best entry in the series, I do think its a wonderful, twisty game.
Was very hesitant when I saw the initial reviews but I can safely say now that this is one of the best HOPA games I have played in a long time. Get ready for unique gameplay, great visuals as per usual from Mad Head, and a super exciting adventure story.
I hope they bring back a certain hilarious fourth-wall-breaking adventurer in the future a well ;) Also great to see a familiar face in there as well :)

Great puzzles, superb visuals, a brilliant soundtrack, and a very smart and fun detective story with some horror/ thriller elements thrown in for good measure!
GrandMA have really outdone themselves with this entry. Much better than Harbinger! The story itself is brilliant, the visuals are stunning as they always are with GrandMa. The puzzles and HOS' are unique and fun.
Personally I loved this game, it is a welcome change to the series that we all know and love. Is it a "proper MCF game"? Not really. However 21 games into the series, it is good to have a change before the formula becomes repetitive. As it is a GrandMa Studios game I was happy to see that their high visual standards were carried over into this game. While it did feel a little too colourful for MCF, I cannot deny the fact that the scenes were genuinely gorgeous. I hope that GrandMa can improve upon this great entry and make a true MCF game next time though. All in all, I would say this is a very fun and visually great game. However, if you want an older truer MCF game then go for an older MCF game :)
I have never played a PuppetShow game until now but I will definitely be tempted to buy other games in the series after playing this one! The story is great, with some brilliant twists (One of which is sadly spoiled in the wallpaper bonus section). The visuals and soundtrack are brilliant as well. I would highly recommend this game!
This is an amazing old school hidden object puzzle adventure game. The art style is unique but brilliant and the wide range of characters was a breath of fresh air to see! Really looking forward to seeing more from this developer:)
