When I first heard about Hoodwink I had seen no screenshots, no trailers and nothing about the story. All I knew were the words “cel shaded point and click adventure”, I was sold on that alone. Unfortunately upon starting the game, my excitement levels dropped spectacularly. I will get on to why in a moment but I will say that Hoodwink is a game that shows a lot of potential, but was clearly released too early.

Brash Games writes "Hoodwink is a stylish and sophisticated looking point-&-click adventure which unfortunately fails to deliver an involving or interesting experience. You find yourself navigating through a very short and limited world which becomes more frustrating as you attempt to get through Hoodwink".
