I have played 100s of HOPA games and this one was an absolute joy from the start to the finish.
From the environment, setting, and vibes of the 70s/80s to the story twists and turns. The music was spot on and background noises had me feeling jumpy. The puzzles were a good mix and nothing felt out of place of shoved in. I thoroughly enjoyed the detective notebook that held our clues on each suspect and the few times during the game we were forced to open it was a nice touch.
For me this is the best HOPA game that I have played in 2023 and even best game in years!
Full disclosure the bonus chapter is a completely different story and game experience, which was more of the typical HOPA style. My main nit pick was it takes place in Glasgow but we didn't have any Scottish voice acting. :)
I recommend this game!

The interactive fragmented scenes were a clever twist on the typical HOS. The unique story has us following our deceased wife through various dream locations.The graphics and audio fit in nicely with the dream landscapes.
Enjoyed this treat of a HOPA game!
I recommend this game!
