All aboard the Mirage Express for a murder mystery with the blue blur at its heart. Is this April Fools freebie worth playing, though?
VGChartz's Chinh Tran: "Once a hugely popular genre in the 80s and 90s, adventure games have somewhat taken a backseat in favor of other types of games. However, as proven in recent years, no other type of game can quite replace a great adventure title. Whether you wanted to explore a tropical island in an open world adventure, unravel a mystery as a fishing boat captain, make choices that matter in a 1980s-inspired narrative adventure, or uncover the murder of one of gaming's most beloved characters, the finalists for Best Adventure Game in 2023 had you covered."
Hit movies, a great 3D game, a co-op sidescroller, a murder mystery visual novel. There is something for every Sonic fan right now.
We did have it good. The sonic og cartoons and sonic x, the sonic games (sonic 1-3 and Sonic adventure 1-2). We had it good. Also sonic shuffle a good party game for the DC. Spent countless hours playing that game single player or with siblings.
Oh look at that, we did have it good. This article is dumb.
Ahhh. Did you forget the 90’s? When Sonic was at it’s peak. Or were you too young or not alive to really understand that?
Sonic fans were eating good in the 90's and early 00's. There was plenty of Sonic content to go around.
WTMG's Leo Faria: "Despite being originally released as some sort of April Fool’s prank, The Murder of Sonic The Hedgehog is not a joke. Sure, it’s silly as hell, but it’s a pretty decent and lighthearted visual novel with some clever writing and a unique premise. Even if it was released as a paid product, I’d call it worth your time, but as a Steam freebie? Just go for it, we’ve all gotten worse stuff on that platform for free."
