An obscure little game that I picked up on a whim. So happy I did.
The Penumbra series is confusing to follow; I had a difficult time keeping up with all of the notes strewn about Penumbra Overture's mine. That being said, I do believe that there was enough of a story for me to piece together the main ideas and enjoy what little I could.
The puzzles were not always the most intuitive, but at least I never found myself putting duct tape on a cat to simulate a dust broom (or anything else obscure like that).
The horror elements were few and far between, but I definitely avoided playing this game when nobody else was home.
Overall, a good introduction into a fun series.
