The WhatsNext verdict

For Fans of dark narrative adventure games and psychological horror who appreciate character-driven mysteries and a distinct, eerie comic-book art style.: Sally Face combines a bizarre, unsettling supernatural mystery with genuine emotional depth among its outcast protagonists. Its eerie hand-drawn aesthetic, haunting tone, and layered cult conspiracy create a memorable, poignant journey through tragedy and dread. Tradeoff: Several point-and-click puzzles rely on obscure logic or pixel hunting, and the late-game narrative shifts toward an ambitious, convoluted mythological climax that leaves some threads unresolved.
