Description

What the heck is going in Scoggins, Minnesota? When White House inquiries to the Scoggins Eraser Co. are answered only with curious puzzles, the U.S. Department of Puzzle Investigation's Nelson Tethers is sent on the case.

The strange case of Scoggins plunges Tethers into a mystery that will challenge every ounce of his expertise, and possibly his very wits too. He must overcome brainteasers at every turn, including mazes, logic puzzles and riddles, and he soon realizes that these - along with the clinically pre-occupied townspeople, secret societies, and mysterious sounds from the forest - are intimately connected to the core conundrum. And what's with the gnomes?

Created with Graham Annable's unique narrative and visual sensibilities, delivered with the distinctive Telltale storytelling style, Puzzle Agent is sure to challenge, thrill and engage in more ways than you can shake a cryptogram at!

Features:

  • Plentiful puzzles to challenge your neurons. See if you can find every puzzle to solve the mystery of Scoggins -- mazes, logic, riddles, brainteasers and more.
  • Investigate the strange, peculiar and mind-boggling to crack the case! Your discoveries provide clues to the larger mystery crippling the town, or uncover puzzles that must be solved to reveal answers ... or even more questions.
  • Hunting for Hints: Chewing gum helps Agent Tethers think and solve. Find and collect gum wads around the town to uncover hints if you get "stuck" in any puzzles.

    It's okay*****

    A very old Telltale game, without the typical engine, but in the classic point'n'click style. All in all, the game has some tough puzzles in store, but frankly I didn't really warm to the story and the characters. At some point I realized that I had never finished the game - and I wasn't particularly sorry.

    Strange..*****

    A crazy game which looks at the start like something you don't get. Persevere and be well rewarded!

    Fun a challenging enough*****

    Nicely drawn and a diverting story, it is really a series of true puzzles, which is refreshing. Ample hints if needed. A bit short and the puzzles could have been more diverse, but probably worth the cost.
