A creepy 2D horror title with an interesting setting.
Detention is made by a Taiwanese developer Red candle Games. Set there in the 1960's during a period of Martial law Detention has an interesting back drop as the game explores, fear, guilt and betrayal during this time period.
It's an engrossing and atmospheric title. It plays as a 2D horror adventure game with some puzzles mixed in. The art is excellent and gives the game just the right kind of spooky atmosphere and is genuinely disturbing at times. The story is really where the game shines though ever pushing towards a seemingly inescapable tragedy. Bleak and interesting and also encouraged me to look more into Taiwan's history and culture. I would score it well just for that alone.
