Twilight Town is a point-and-click detective mystery game with a twist.
You play as a detective in Twilight Town and your only objective is to uncover the hidden, dark secret of the town and stop the villains from overruling it. You’re the last detective in your line and you’ve been sent to this awfully strange town in order to find out what happened to your predecessor- Constantine.
As you start digging into the clues, you find out that this place holds a lot more than what meets the eye.
The game is pretty much a hidden objects type of game, where you need to find an assortment of laid out objects on a panel and find these objects on the screen in a still image. You point, click, and find them. With all the storyline aside, Twilight Town is an expansive “find the object” game. The only difference that it offers is an in-depth story, which you don’t often see with typical games of this genre.
It also has some other features like city-building and basic combat. You can use magical abilities to fight some evil villains, but it’s very, very basic. You also have resource management with a limited supply of goods, so there are some RPG elements as well.
Each citizen has a reputation meter that you have to improve and the cast of characters is pretty well-done. They each have two separate guises for you to uncover.
The game also has a few minigames thrown in that make it feel like you’re playing a cheap puzzle game on your phone. These are pretty annoying but are required to progress.
As for the actually puzzle-solving, it’s decent. You can complete over 100 magic collections of items and explore very detailed environments.
Twilight Town is like a hybrid of a point-and-click detective game, city-builder, and graphic novel all into one game with basic monster battles and a pretty awesome storyline.
It’s a very corny game, but if you like roleplaying or you want to try something new and visually-appealing, give Twilight Town a try (especially if you like point-and-click games).
