The WhatsNext verdict
For Players who want a two-person mystery they solve by talking it through.: Each partner sees only part of the castle, so every puzzle asks you to describe what you see, compare notes, and reason out loud together. Tradeoff: Without a partner who is paying attention, the puzzles stall, so the game gives a solo player little to work with.
