Parker & Lane: Twisted Minds

At the moment, it is just buggy: Achievements don`t work, you can`t get 3 stars in some levels and the minigames do not run smoothly. Sad, because I really liked the first one and they got new ideas for minigames.

Edit:4/1/2019 (No this is not an April fools edit...just noticing the irony of updating my review today.) I started this game by misclicking on my desktop and low and behold the Steam Achievements all loaded in once I clicked on the achievements in game. So that was a nice bonus I was not expecting today. As for the "buggy" levels I haven't replayed them, but if you can be patient it is possible to three star them. (I did it before any update was patched so it might even be easier now. I'll leave that down below in the review.) If it's still hard you can certainly find help and answers online. I do hope the developers decide to listen to the feedback, and try and balance the next game better. That said, I loved this game. The story was fun, and Parker was better as a character overall. She felt much less like a stereotype, and more like a real person. I was no longer screaming at her for being rude or an idiot, which is a HUGE improvement. The twists are a bit predictable, but enjoya...

Overall I loved this game, but I do not recommend for the following issues that people refuse to mention. Depending on your luck, the achievements could be bugged on your end, aswell as getting the diamonds and mice. I had to uninstall and install lots of time, mess with the files, etc. Until I was able to get it done, I'm not sure they're working on the updates to make it better, but I haven't seen any improvements. From having Lily just run out of the map randomly, and not being able to get the 3 stars even though you had a perfect score. I had to repeat lots of times and milk as much as I could to get the 3 starts, and it's not supposed to be this impossible, I was inclined to get all the achievements just to prove that it's possible, however it is extremely painful to go through. The story is okay, no big issue there, but the several bugs killed this game for me. The amount of effort I had to do shouldn't be needed. If the devs are reading this, please listen to the pleas and u...

A pretty good GH addition, although there are a few small (non-game breaking) bugs that are more annoying than anything. There were some parts where I should have gotten 10 bonus points for a person getting 5 (gold) stars, but they only kept 4 stars and gave me 5 bonus points as a result, BUT none of that effected me completing the levels with max stars. I did have an issue with a mouse in one level but changing difficulties fixed the issue I was having. The story itself was pretty good and while the ending was obvious, it still was pretty fun (although the final stage seemed a tad bit easy compared to the rest of the stages). Overall, a very nice installment of a GH game and one that I would recommend playing if you enjoy time management games. As per usual of other GH games, they all go on sale at one point or another, grab this one when it goes on sale.

fun little time management game with a csi twist

A very great sequel to the first game. The mechanics are better, the minigames and level more balanced and a unigue feature of multiple playable characters. The crime scenes are interactable and change the way through the levels. The story is cool as well. The only thing is that after the last crime scene the levels are getting a little more boring due to being mostly the same. But still very cool. I hope there will be coming a new game after this. I can highly recommend it

Quick and easy little game. Good fun. A must buy when on sale.

I would have really liked this game if it worked properly. It's buggy and doesn't run smoothly. If my computer can run Skyrim, surely it can run this game. A potato should be able to run this game.

Way better than its predecessor. I'm very happy they learned from their mistakes and made the game very enjoyable. The gameplay is not too easy but also not too hard, like a good GameHouse game should be and the story is very interesting and mysterious.

I really liked this game, just like the first one. The story line is interesting and the minigames and stages are pretty neat. But it's a bummer, that most stages didn't have music. It's a bit weird when I turn off the loud music, it still plays pretty loudly on the opening screen. Also I had some problems where the game froze every now and then. (It's not due my pc, because other titles, new or old, from GH work normally.) Still had a lot of fun playing it. The new minigames were pretty cool. So if you love a cool story this games for you, but expect there to be a lack of music and sometimes lagging.
