Mystery Falls starts with the disappearance of a little girl in a small town of the United States, and the game protagonist is the Special Agent David Parker, who was sent by the FBI to investigate the case and try to find out what happened. The story will unfold as the player interacts with the locals, and some mysteries may be solved even before the end of the game, depending on whether the player is taking a linear or explorative route.
In Mystery Falls the gameplay is a mix of exploration and action. The music and scenery are inspired by the Twin Peaks series, while other ideas also come from the games Deadly Premonition and Mizzurna Falls. The game is not an rpg, but an open world exploration and investigation adventure game, with many features like playable arcade videogames, shooting sections, different outfits, a drivable car, and puzzles.
Random Fact: while Mystery Falls is the only game in which we can play as Special Agent David Parker, but this character appears in other games by Richterwilker. Each game is a self contained story and setting, and the next two seem to take place in the same universe after the events of Mystery Falls.
Final Verdict: a really immersive adventure game, a surreal thriller with a really weird story that includes cultists, zombies, aliens, dinosaurs and more. Action parts aren't the best aspects, but for the rest it's an impressive adventure with all custom graphics.
