Great artwork, great experience!

Gibbous shines because of the outstanding artwork. The LucasArts influence is emanating through the game. Only the graphics are up-to-date with today's standards. Just stunning! The soundtrack is also pretty rad. This went unnoticed for me during gameplay. But when I paused the game to do some some household chores, I started noticing how detailed the soundtrack composition was. Regarding the gameplay, the story is pretty much linear, and most puzzles are straightforward to get. This could be a turndown, depending on what you're looking for. It worked fine with me, as I managed to finish it in around 10 hours. The writing could also be a bit tighter. It felt that there were minor gaps in the story telling here and there. But nothing too distracting. Overall, the flow of the story was very good. As a final note, do save often if you're after achievement completion. Somehow, achievements stopped working for me after pausing the game for a long period. I had to exit the game and load to get them working again. Highly recommended if you're looking for a LucasArts-like kick!

Starts good, never goes anywhere

Starts out good enough, funny, intriguing. The Cthulhu inspirations go about as far as a cult but not much more, really dissappointing second half of the game with a twist ending that kinda ruins it all. Nothing worse than a Cthulhu game that skimps on Cthulhu.

I love Kitteh, simple as that

Well, I am not into adventures. I am green and enthuisiastic in that sense. What drew me into Gibbous were: Kitteh, Lovecraft and amazing drawing. Now for art, I have not a single bad thing to tell. I would speed up certain animation for certain but that could be thrown at the programmer. Otherwise it's great and judging voice actors' work (not dialogues but overall execution) it's very neat and superb at times (yes the tourist shop representant is one of those memorable voices). For gameplay and technical execution it's really good. Not that made-by-one-programmer good, it simply is. I even thought there's like handful people behind it. I would really speed up animations, I cannot stress that enough. For a game this beatiful lip sync was primitive even and sometimes out of rhythm, but I was able to phase that out. Now the puzzle, story and dialogues. Puzzles were fine, really. I've searched the internet only twice, simply because missing a clue, which is great! I am normally glued to walkthroughs in these kind of games. Sometimes I got really nice voice clues. I like dialogues. Other reviewers point out that of them are really bad or forced. I liked them all. Now the story! I will regard only the bad part, which is, suffice to say the third act all the way to the ending. I am pretty much convinced the script author was creating some aspects of the story on the fly, which is ok (there's no end to Work, hehe), but he probably didn't have the time to get back and implement the changes into first and second act. Dialogues were already voiced etc. I can imagine that. The result though is confusing and many reviewers are regarding that simply as "unsatisfying ending". I agree. There were too many loose ends and so on. I personally hate the katarsis of the story (pardon my English), it made my emotional release during ending totally off. That's not how you handle katarsis, no no no. 7/10, and two points taken are for messy third act and its, at times, frustrating pacing.

Cthulhu meets comedy

An enjoyable story with protagonists, you never met before in that combination. Private Eye Don R. Ketype, the part-time librarian/student Buzz Kerwan, Kitteh, his talking cat and the legendary Necronomicon - on a phantastic journey into the (at first) unknown - this is, what awaits you, player With beautiful graphics, nicely drawn characters and witty dialogues you are instantly drawn into the game. It is clearly inspired by LA games, many references to e.g. Day of the Tentacle or Monkey Island etc. Puzzles are more on the easy side, so no testing of the frustration level. Pros of this little gem are the well designed characters, the witty dialogues and the unconventional story with nice highlights in between (Kitteh as a rising star in the musical scene or a rap battle....) As con may count the little challenge - but this is a question of taste. I highly recommend Gibbous !

Everything good until the ending

I only got around to play this game now and for the most part it was great, the puzzles were good and balanced (only one or two puzzles were a bit odd but nothing really frustrating) voice acting was pretty competent and the soundtrack does a pretty good job giving character to each location and moment. The artwork is GREAT, the animations are fantastic and the backgrounds beautiful and detailed(the festival in fishmouth was a favourite for me) So why only three stars? It's the ending for me that does it, I already got some hints before getting to the actual end but it was a pretty awful ending\last ten minutes, i know that stories based on the cthulhu mythos don't have the usual endings (i loved every minute of dark corners of the earth and call of cthulhu, ending included in those cases) but i feel the tone for most of the game didn't need an ending of that kind. Anyway, as a first game for the studio it was a great work you did guys, just the ending that soured my experience is all.
