atmoshere, diverse characters, retro graphics, humor, plenty of dialog
a bit easy riddles
Lamplight city is a very atmospheric, steampunk, detective game with plenty of dialog, a lot of different aerias to visit and people to talk, and the most important a lot of diverse characters! It’s riddles are a bit easy, but the plot is interesting and it has a nice sense of humor that made me giggle quite often. The retro graphics, as always, were a huge plus.
