Freaky Trip was... a trip lol. I see what the game is going for. It's got a quirky art style and seeks to be a modern take on the old point and click style Flash games. I did enjoy its vibe. But the logic puzzles weren't entirely logical which made them less satisfying to figure out. A lot of them had cause and effects that were whimsical but also creative in a way that wasn't using a universal logic. I used the hints for nearly every puzzle because it wanted me to do something I would never guess to do. Even knowing the hint didn't always lead me to what I needed to do, but I do appreciate that it doesn't give you free answers either. I think this game would be good to play with children because the chaotic nature of their imaginations would agree with the not-logic of this game. I played Freaky Trip in one sitting and still had fun with it despite my complaints. I can't exactly recommend it, especially because the game does have some bugs that require you to quit to main menu to reset the puzzle, but I can get behind some nonsense when it's in an interesting package like this.
