Today on Talking Sim we wait for Cameron by playing McPixel, then we will. I'm looking forward to finding out a lot more about the Blackwell family, so I imagine the sequel will be up next. tone, art direction, and theme to this discussion of games as a medium. I've got the first three Blackwell games in my backlog, and looking at the developer's Wikipedia page I'm pleased to see a couple more games on there that I own. The game did a good job of wrapping up its story without overstaying its welcome, and has definitely got me interested in playing the rest of the series. The writing is smart, and the story had me hooked straight away. Even when I found myself resorting to using everything in my inventory (or notebook of clues) with everything else, I had a nostalgic smile on my face. The art style is very much influenced by Lucasarts, and for the most part the puzzle design is cut from the same cloth. I was obsessed with point and click adventures, and playing The Blackwell Legacy immediately gave me a pleasant feeling of familiarity. Create game sprites, make pixel art, animated GIFs, share artwork and socialize online.

The sequel came on eleven, and you never forgot it, especially when you misclicked an exit and had to change disks to load the room you didn't even want to go into. Pixilart, free online drawing editor and social platform for all ages. Obviously, I played the first game too, but that came on a mere four disks. One of my clearest memories of childhood is of sitting in front of the family Amiga, with a huge stack of floppy disks next to me, playing The Secret of Monkey Island 2. If the atmosphere wasn't worth soaking in, I wouldn't care about the occasions where the cracks appear. The identical delivery lessens immersion, and with a game as heavy with noir atmosphere as this, that's a crime. When I play voiced adventure games, I like to try and avoid making characters repeat themselves, but in this game, reaching that point in the dialogue is the only way to know you've got as much as you can. One thing I'm less keen on is having to ask people multiple times about the same clue in my notebook in order to get the next bit of information I need. The story behind the two ghosts is just as interesting as in the original, and once again I ended up genuinely invested in putting them to rest.

Still, for an indie game like this to have full voice acting is enough of a surprise, so picking at the quality seems a little churlish. The writing remains very good, although the voice acting is a bit more hit and miss. Running two cases in parallel, with minor overlaps, means a lot more options for what to do next, and a lot less getting stuck. The structure of this follow up game is markedly better than the original. What's this, it's the 70s? And we're playing as Aunt Lauren? Now you're talking.

I couldn't help it, a couple of days break and then straight into the sequel. McPixel is a save-the-day guy that you guide through short challenges in an oldschool pointnclick fashion.
