An Addiction
Hi. My name is Yowkz and I'm a recovering nonogram addict. It all started as a few innocent puzzles to figure out a pixelated picture, just like the first couple of cases in Murder By Numbers (later I learned these are known as "gateway nonograms"). I thought I was strong enough to resist temptation, but the game was slapped onto a murder mystery. I started sweating cold, teeth chattering, and before I noticed I had put a little over 40 hours into the game. I did all of it. ALL OF IT! Sometimes... I can still hear the repetitive music when I close my eyes; number-related pixel patterns muddling my dreams... Joking aside, I wish the developers had put an option to choose a specific puzzle or section in each case. It can be a little tiring to know you messed doing A-Rate/100% of a case because you used a small hint in one of the last puzzles and the only way to clear it is going through the whole case all over again. Story is fairly linear with a likeable cast, and you can guess the suspect mid-way through a case. It feels like a Saturday morning cartoon... with MUUURDEEER!... So like a regular Saturday morning cartoon of old. The music is upbeat and fun, but when you get to the later stages where you can spend 30+ minutes hopefully putting the squares where they should, it... it can be haunting to say the least. The artbook is nice, but it annoys me a little to know that Honor had a few designs for a dress which would've been perfect for the awards ceremony in the second case, but that's just nitpicking. The soundtrack... I-I think I better leave that alone... It has looped around in my head enough already. All in all, it gave me a fun time and satisfied my nonogram craving. I've been clean for about four months since I finished it, and I've recovered enough to look for a job again.
