Detention came out in 2017 and a movie was made in 2019. I bought the game but ended up watching the movie first and really enjoyed it. It was an amazing story of both a historical time period in Taiwan and a fascinating character dive. I decided to next play the game and I’m glad I did. First I’m amazingly impressed that a movie was able to be made from a point and click game.

This is very well-made. It is fun to try and solve the puzzles that will allow you to progress. And the creators were wonderful in that if it was a super-long walk between where you started and where you ended up for the puzzle and no longer needed that section of the map, they cut out the middle walking section so going between the doors just takes you where you need to go.

The story is well-done and the last chapter has you go through the reveals of what happened and answer several questions which determine if you get the true ending or the normal ending. If you’ve been paying attention to the story you should be able to get the true ending as I did. Once you complete the game, a chapter select option opens up on the main menu so you can go back in to the last chapter to get the other ending. Playing through with just one ending took me just over four hours to complete and I feel completely satisfied with this game. It didn’t overstay its welcome. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone who enjoys story-focused games.

This is a nice psychological horror game, which tells a tale of tragedy. While I'd hardly call it "scary" it does very well for an indie game, which can be beaten easily in under three hours.

Amazing amazing horrible and amazing
