Mystery Castle Review | TXH

Neil writes "A retro-inspired masterpiece.

Four words that send a shiver down my spine.

The current generation of consoles have recently been hit by all manner of ‘retro inspired’ pieces of art; not all of which are worth the outlay. So when I heard that the cute puzzle solver, Mystery Castle was being marketed by the development team at Runestone Games as another retro inspired title, my heart sank just a little bit. I was expecting clunky controls. I was expecting those damn 8-bit visuals. I was expecting a backing track full of beeps and 1980’s style pain.

I was not for one minute expecting what I actually got."
