What players say

Players say the game is a love letter to the Castle TV series, with fans enjoying the in-jokes and faithful recreation of sets. The hidden object and puzzle gameplay is solid but generic, with some puzzles being fiendishly difficult and others poorly explained. The story is engaging for fans, but the lack of voice acting and short length are common complaints.
