Marie's Room

Detectives! Mystery! Murder!

Another FTP 2018 game I played because it was on the BLAEO awards. Pretty solid walking sim for being free. The voice acting is decent and tells an interesting story.


Orwell

Detectives! Mystery! Murder! Dystopia - The World Gone Wrong Favorites Literary Ties Make Believe - Simulated Lives

Challenge Me! game. I do genealogy, so playing this felt a lot like doing that, only less innocent. Orwell deals with its topic of surveillance well and presents conflicts such as subjectivity and choice in building databases on people through indirect information taken out of context. The choices you make and the data you decide to add matters, since it can cause people to be arrested, die, affect their jobs, or your choices can allow them to carry on in peace with sketchy activities. The game did a good job of incorporating all of these possibilities of what could happen, as well as things that are already happening as a result of things like posts on social media.

Played this for the monthly theme. I stayed up until 3:30 AM when I had to be up at 7:10 for work to build a tower of 10 stools for an achievement. Your goal in this game is one of those things that is way more fun to do in a game than irl. Cleaning up Santa's workshop of the dismembered elves and reindeer was like having a little project. At some point I even began to take pride in my work. I started clueless with no experience cleaning up viscera of any magnitude but was running an efficient ship within a couple hours.

Merry Christmas! (click me)

Orwell did a really good job with presenting it’s topic. I think it was one of the best games I played in recent years. Glad to see you enjoyed it as well

Enjoy DRAGON QUEST XI, that’s an awesome gift! I’ve been watching a few videos of people playing it and it’s definitely given me the itch to play a jrpg (which I haven’t had in a long time), the music is really nostalgic and great, and the combat seems clean.

That “I stayed up until 3:30 AM” comment made me laugh, so typical of games ruining sleep schedules over the dumbest things. :P How was that achievement, I heard it’s really hard? Did it take that many attempts? Kudos!

I saved and reloaded for every chair I got to stay. I rebuilt it after the 9th chair because I realized it was too unstable at some lower part to get the last one to stay. I read about a ghost/flying mode you could use, so I used it to rebuild quickly. The problem without the flying mode is that you often can’t reach far enough to center the stool well. It took less than 20 minutes after I started using the ghost mode, I think.

Welcome to the Viscera Cleanup squad for the monthly theme. :D (hi-five! )
There’s currently me, the traveler and you on board. :P
How many times did you try for the stool achievement? Did you figure out that you can save after each successful stool placement? :3
Good job on getting it btw. It’s not an easy task I know!

Trilled Meow

Yeah, I started saving between stools from the beginning. I got stuck at 9 and decided to rebuild, read about the ghost mode, then shamelessly used that to do it quickly.

86maylin

There’s ghost mode? :o I didn’t know that. xD

Trilled Meow

Yep, so you can float above to better center the stools. It was only a little hard at the top because you’re too close to the ceiling to float above it. I don’t know how late I would have stayed up if i hadn’t found that, because I was determined to 100% it before bed.

86maylin

Yeah, positioning is the hardest! I used presents and extra stools to make another pile as stairs for the middle part. It’s quite annoying actually since if you don’t have good positioning you end up pushing the lower chairs out of position. ><
