Du côté visuel, je n’ai rien de très grave, outre un objet qui est demeuré en lévitation et une caméra parfois capricieuse, mais pour le reste c’est du tout bon. La recréation des scènes du passé est franchement bien réussie. Par contre, je m’interroge, est-ce le Docteur Mulder ou Muller? Il semble y avoir une faute dans la traduction. Pour l’aspect auditif, le jeu des acteurs/actrices est bien mené, on sent les émotions ou la détresse. Le jeu bien qu’il ne comporte aucune menace, mise une ambiance sans cesse oppressante. On a toujours l’impression d’être observé que quelque chose se cache dans l’ombre. Avec un casque d’écoute, c’est jouissif.

As a short, narrative adventure, The Last Case of John Morley is enjoyable thanks to a great sense of atmosphere, good story and well paced reveals that keep us second guessing right until the very end.

The Last Case of John Morley is a delightful, bite-sized mystery that respects your time. It’s a polished, atmospheric experience that is perfect for a cozy night in.

J’en attendais absolument rien et il est arrivé de sorte qu’il soit mon ultime test de cette année 2025 ultra surchargée. Ca se laisse suivre avec un grand plaisir, sans prise de tête. The Last Case Of John Morley vous propose pour un petit prix, une enquête classique, qui se révèle vraiment plaisante à suivre, pour un platine facile à aller chercher. Que demander de plus, vraiment ?

The Last Case of John Morley is a compelling, atmospheric, and quietly moving detective tale that delivers exactly what it sets out to. It’s let down somewhat by limited mechanics, some rough technical edges, and a short runtime, but its mood, storytelling, and environments leave a lasting impression.

Investigating a 20-year-old murder wasn’t something I expected to do when playing this game, but I am impressed with the game’s intriguing premise and how it all unfolds. The fact that you get to be a detective during the 40s is a highlight too, along with some of the puzzles you encounter. It’s not meant to be a very long game, however I wish it was longer, because there are many points where the gameplay feels very satisfying and intriguing.

A pesar de tener muchos escenarios con un tamaño regular, varias pistas por buscar, objetos que abonan a la investigación y otros tantos que no logran añadir nada más que cultura general, The Last Case of John Morley es un gran juego con un contenido claramente enfocado en sorprender visualmente con su atmósfera lúgubre y macabro audio, ayudándose de la historia que no carga con el peso completo de la producción, pero que se equilibra bien y termina convenciendo claramente. Hay que tener bien puesto el ojo en estos muchachos que supieron hacer un título redondo y cuyo proyecto en puerta promete ser mejor que este.

The Last Case of John Morley is a suspenseful detective adventure that thrives on atmosphere, puzzles, and exploration. While accessibility issues, slow pacing, and uneven voice work hold it back, the strong visuals, engaging environments, and haunting narrative make it worth experiencing for fans of noir mysteries and horror-infused storytelling. It may not be flawless, but its immersive world and memorable story carry it far.

The Last Case of John Morley si presenta come un’avventura narrativa compatta e intensa, incentrata su un’indagine segnata da mistero e scomode rivelazioni. La cura nella ricostruzione dell’epoca, l’intensità dell’atmosfera e l’approccio investigativo offrono al giocatore un’esperienza coinvolgente, ideale per chi cerca storie brevi ma appassionanti. Si tratta di un titolo piacevole, in grado di soddisfare sicuramente gli amanti dei giochi investigativi.

En définitive, The Last Case of John Morley est une œuvre qui s’adresse avant tout aux joueurs en quête d’une expérience narrative mature et réfléchie. Il ne plaira pas à ceux qui recherchent de l’action ou un rythme soutenu, mais il séduira les amateurs de récits policiers introspectifs et d’enquêtes exigeantes. Son écriture soignée, son atmosphère pesante et sa volonté de laisser le joueur interpréter les événements en font un jeu imparfait mais sincère, qui marque davantage par ce qu’il raconte que par ce qu’il montre. Une dernière affaire qui, sans révolutionner le genre, laisse une impression durable.

The Last Case of John Morley le falta pulido en su sistema de pistas, aunque en lo narrativo sabe cautivar. Una actuación de voz que destaca en todos los personajes, lamentablemente con subtítulos mal sincronizados. No te lleva de la mano, algo que le permite destacar en su labor de darte una fantasía detectivesca. Al mismo tiempo su forma de recolectar pista podría mejorar para tener un mejor registro de lo que llevas. Si lo tuyo es la tensión, además de las andanzas del buen Sherlock Holmes, es una buena opción. Una lástima que en tres horas se pueda terminar y te deja con antojo de más.

The Last Case of John Morley non è un gioco per chi cerca azione o adrenalina. È un gioco per chi ama il noir, per chi vuole indagare e per chi è disposto a vivere un ritmo lento e pesante. Su PS5 l’esperienza risulta solida, curata e coerente. Non perfetta (ci sono animazioni rigide, qualche bug, una certa ripetitività nelle meccaniche) ma sempre fedele al suo tono. Quella di Indigo Studios è un’opera che non si dimentica facilmente. Non perché sorprenda, ma perché resta. Resta nelle ombre, nei silenzi e nelle parole non dette.

Sul fronte narrativo, The Last Case of John Morley offre una trama intrigante e un mistero veramente soddisfacente da risolvere. Ci sono tante incertezze tecniche che avrebbero avuto bisogno di una cura maggiore, così come per le animazioni. Secondo me Indigo Studios, risolti gli scogli tecnici e trovata una formula ludica più accattivante e in grado di mettere alla prova le capacità deduttive del giocatore, potrebbe avere molto da offrire nella scena dei titoli investigativi a tinte noir.

The Last Case of John Morley ist ein Titel, der von seinem Skript lebt und stirbt, das kurz, linear und ohne große spielerische Einfälle ist, aber ein paar Stunden gut gemachte Noir-Atmosphäre bietet. Es ist kein Spiel, das mit komplexen Mechaniken oder bahnbrechender Technik beeindrucken will, sondern eine faszinierende Geschichte erzählt, die Liebhaber klassischer Detektivgeschichten in ihren Bann zieht. Sicherlich wiegen die kurze Spielzeit, aber wenn du dich vom dekadenten Charme des London der Jahrhundertwende mitreißen lässt, wird John Morley dich auf eine Ermittlung mitnehmen, die trotz ihrer Einfachheit Eindruck hinterlässt.

The Last Case of John Morley es un thriller detectivesco con buena historia pero puzles algo repetitivos. Recomendado para fans de las aventuras de investigación.

The Last Case of John Morley es un juego de nicho, hecho para los fans del género detectivesco. Buena historia, ambientación y personajes, y mecánica de exploración aceptables. En este aspecto le lastra la ausencia total de deducciones o características propias de aventuras gráficas, si buscas eso este no es tu juego, ni probablemente tu género.

A moody and atmospheric mystery with great environments and uneven puzzle design, but one that rewards players who enjoy piecing together a case at their own pace.

The Last Case of John Morley offers an engaging narrative and enjoyable puzzles. While technical graphics suffer from various bugs that could disrupt gameplay, crime fiction fans seeking a mystery should try this title.

In short, The Last Case of John Morley is a short narrative-driven adventure game with a gripping story. It only took me 3 hours to finish it, but it was captivating, and I believe these developers can do a lot better in the future

If you're looking for a title to switch off your mind for a short while and simply enjoy an engaging, atmospheric narrative on a lazy afternoon, then The Last Case of John Morley can truly be a fitting and memorable choice.

The Last Case of John Morley is a very short, but interesting noir detective story with outdated visuals and technical aspects. However, the developers chose not to create a hollow pretense of philosophical drama or a profound statement. What awaits you is a convoluted yet fairly simple detective story with a realistic ending.

It's quite short and rather rough around the edges, but The Last Case of John Morley has an interesting case for you to crack. Just don't expect anything too ambitious or impressive.

Some may find The Last Case of John Morley too short and straightforward, but in an age of overwhelming gaming bloat, others will likely consider those qualities a strength.

The Last Case of John Morley est un bon petit « snack » pour les amateurs de polar. Il ne révolutionne pas le genre et souffre d’un manque de finition technique propre aux petites productions, mais il compense par une âme véritable et une direction artistique maîtrisée. Si vous cherchez un Sherlock Holmes « light » pour occuper une soirée pluvieuse, c’est un bon candidat. Si vous attendez une enquête complexe et systémique, passez votre chemin.

For what it sets out to be, The Last Case of John Morley is a modest success: an evocative, evening-length noir whose atmosphere and core mystery are compelling in spite of – and sometimes because of – its small scale. Its chief pleasures are environmental mood and a story that tilts toward sorrow rather than spectacle, but its impact is dulled by predictability in the twist, lightweight investigative systems and a few technical problems. At its best it is a memorable short story in game form; at its worst it feels like an intriguing premise that needed more time and polish to match its ambition. For players seeking a brief, moody detective outing on a budget price, it is worth a look; those seeking a deeper investigative simulation should temper expectations.

Indigo Studios and Jandusoft draw us into a murder case that happened 20 years ago.

Think about walking into a mansion where the walls seem to breathe, where silence is louder than sound, and shadows wait for you to blink to move. The Last Case of John Morley starts with a big promise: the last case of a veteran detective in a house that smells like death.

The Last Case of John Morley è un noir indipendente che punta tutto su atmosfera, linearità e ricostruzione ambientale. L’esperienza è breve, guidata e visivamente coerente, con un doppiaggio sorprendentemente efficace. Tuttavia, la mancanza di suspense, l’assenza di veri colpi di scena e una limitata empatia verso Morley riducono l’impatto emotivo dell’indagine. È un titolo consigliato a chi ama i walking simulator narrativi, meno a chi cerca tensione o libertà.

The Last Case of John Morley es una aventura detectivesca breve, bien construida y con una ambientación muy lograda. No destaca por su profundidad jugable ni por la complejidad de sus puzles, pero su historia está bien contada, el ritmo funciona y el tono noir de la Inglaterra de los años 40 encaja a la perfección con la propuesta. Es un juego recomendable para quienes disfruten de misterios compactos y de experiencias narrativas centradas en avanzar, observar y seguir el hilo de una investigación sin artificios.

An evocative, well‑staged noir that often nails mood and presentation but is held back by shallow mechanics, visible asset shortcuts, and a runtime that feels too brief for its ambitions.

The Last Case of John Morley es un título narrativo más que de investigación de crímenes. No podría decir que es complicado, ya que desde un principio me he sentido plenamente guiado (dejándome también poco lugar a la imaginación). He echado de menos tener más puzles, así como alguna exploración más allá de la mansión en la que ocurren los hechos.

Sin embargo, considero que es un título bastante entretenido, que gana bastante por esa narrativa que realmente interesa al jugador en todo momento. Si lo que buscas es un título con el que hacer pasar tu tarde, sin duda alguna este videojuego puede ser un gran candidato.

Despite some positive points in its narrative and visual presentation, The Last Case of John Morley presents too many issues to be easily recommended. The gameplay is weak and uninspired, and this is further compounded by serious flaws in the Portuguese localization, such as gender agreement errors—especially when female characters are speaking—which significantly break immersion. This is a game that clearly deserved more care and polish to truly stand out and overcome its limitations. Still, due to its short runtime, many of these problems do not become as evident as they otherwise might, making the experience somewhat more tolerable for players looking for a quick, story-driven journey.

The Last Case of John Morley lives and dies by its script: short, straightforward, and light on gameplay, yet offering a couple of hours of well-crafted noir atmosphere. It doesn’t aim for complex mechanics or technical spectacle, but rather tells an engaging detective story that appeals to fans of the genre. Despite its brevity and lack of Italian localization, its early‑20th‑century London setting delivers a simple yet memorable investigation.

I enjoy the pacing of The Last Case of John Morley, as it is easily digestible, and doesn’t throw so much information at you to make it confusing. This is not without issues, however, since the plot becomes quite easy to guess. Gameplay is rather light, and there are only a couple of puzzles scattered around. Minor issues I had were that some interactable icons would not work unless I was far enough away, while others did not appear. The only thing I’d suggest is that when it comes to uncovering what happened at the scenes, the player should put it together themselves. Instead of the game just making you interact and tell you. I think The Last Case of John Morley deserves the Thumb Culture Silver Award, for the enjoyable story and decent atmosphere.

The Last Case of John Morley propose une enquête courte, mais immersive avec une excellente ambiance sonore et des énigmes plaisantes. Même avec un guidage envahissant et des contrôles agaçants, l’histoire reste captivante et se boucle en près de 2h45. Un petit walking simulator imparfait, mais agréable si on cherche une expérience narrative simple et atmosphérique.

The Last Case of John Morley to gra skierowana do bardzo konkretnego odbiorcy. Jeśli jesteś miłośnikiem klimatycznych opowieści detektywistycznych, nie przeraża Cię krótki czas gry, to na pewno warto rozważyć zakup - szczególnie w tej cenie.

The Last Case of John Morley is dripping with atmosphere and the story has a lot of potential, but it's dragged down by uninspired gameplay and an underdeveloped protagonist.

Vontatott és egyszer használatos. Kihagyott ziccer, mert kellő odafigyeléssel ebből egy sokkalta jobb játék is lehetett volna.

The Last Case of John Morley is a detective game without any detecting. This walk-through of what could be a fantastic mystery story is let down by wooden voiceover performances, dated character visuals and mind-numbing mechanics.

An atmospheric detective mystery, The Last Case of John Morley is a compact tale with surprisingly high production values for a game of this size. Unfortunately, it undermines itself by telegraphing its twisting narrative and lacks those 'eureka' moments you'd find in other, similar titles. Still, if you're in the mood for a one-and-done 'whodunnit' that you can start and finish in a single sitting, this is still worth your attention.

It’s never pleasant to write a negative review of a video game, given the considerable effort and dedication that goes into its creation, but it’s important to be objective and evaluate the product offered to players. In this case, The Last Case of John Morley demonstrates considerable effort in terms of its graphics. Otherwise, however, it only takes up three hours of the player’s time without offering anything in return.

In the end, The Last Case of John Morley is just a sad example of what many horror walking simulators look like today. The game may have a solid premise, but it fails to turn it into a truly satisfying experience.

The Last Case of John Morley offers a decent premise and moody environments, but is sunk by rough writing, clumsy presentation, and a baffling ending which turns a promising cold case into a lukewarm disappointment. ‍

“A cold-case detective thriller without genuine detecting” sounds more like a strange joke than proper description for this game. Combine that alongside poor storytelling and shoddy presentation, and it’s sad to say John Morley’s final case ends with a pitiful whimper rather than a bang.
