Jump Dash RollRob KershawJul 20269/10A superb point-and-click adventure that pairs exceptional writing, memorable characters and satisfyingly logical puzzles with one of the most enjoyable supernatural mysteries the genre has seen in years.

WellPlayedZach JacksonNov 20259/10With a captivating story and cast of characters, wonderful art style and soundtrack, and some truly genre-redefining design, Foolish Mortals is an outstanding point-and-click adventure that plays like a modern classic.
Read the reviewIt may sound far-fetched, but Foolish Mortal leaves you with the taste of a great adventure, like the ones we used to play in the 90s and get excited about. Just like its "mentors" did.

Hey Poor PlayerAndrew ThorntonNov 20254/5Foolish Mortals does a good job of a lot of things, and once it gets going it offers a spooky good time for fans of adventure games. It doesn’t try to reinvent the wheel and I do wish its interface had a bit of an overhaul but fans of adventure titles will have an excellent time with it. This isn’t a game that’s going to win over anyone who doesn’t already love the genre though.

LadiesGamers.comMargaret David Nov 2025Foolish Mortals is a loving throwback to point-and-click Lucasarts games like Full Throttle, with quality voice acting and clever puzzles set in a richly designed, fictional Louisiana bayou. It’s a ton of well-designed fun, and stunningly well-polished for a game from apparent newcomer designers Inklingwood. With a cozy tone and a light supernatural style, it’s definitely a must-play for Tim Schaefer fans — or anyone who loves a good story.
