That’s Twin Mirror’s problem all over though, there’s not a lot to it. Investigations are the real ‘game’ part of Twin Mirror. These only crop up a handful of times though, and I’d have preferred a few more of them to enjoy. They weren’t difficult and there’s no fail state, but I felt a degree of satisfaction for solving them. This reminded me of The Sinking City and its investigations, and I enjoyed these bits considerably. This takes place in Sam’s Mind Palace and will have you piecing together clues to work out a sequence of events by altering who you think was there and what actions they may have taken.

Other choices will have a significant impact on how things play out however, and these are clearly identified. You’ll choose who to speak to and how to respond, resulting in considerably different conversational outcomes depending on what you say, although these outcomes don’t seem to make a huge difference to the progression of the plot. This being a Dontnod game, you may not be surprised to know that choice is a major factor in how the plot develops. ![]() There are a fair few people to meet, but I always looked forward to conversations with Him. There’s a lot to like here, and I was interested quite quickly. You’ll interact with a number of interesting characters - with Him being a particular highlight - early on, and gain access to Sam’s Mind Palace where he can recall memories and analyse information. You’re introduced to your character and his ‘twin’, known only as Him, who helps Sam understand how to handle social situations which he seems to struggle with. The set up for Twin Mirror is pretty interesting. Sam gets drunk, passes out, and wakes up in his hotel room with his shirt covered in blood. Upon hearing of the death of his old friend Nick, Sam returns to the town for the wake and runs into a number of people from his past, including Nick’s daughter who seems to think that Nick’s death wasn’t the accident the police claim it was. He left two years ago after writing an article that closed the local mine, leading to him being vilified by the locals. ![]() You play as Sam Higgs, a former reporter from the small American town of Basswood. ![]() Dontnod were kind enough to offer us a code to try it out, and as a fan of this genre, I was more than happy to give it a go. It seems that they’re trying to stick to their guns with their new release, psychological thriller Twin Mirror. Whilst games like Remember Me and Vampyr certainly have their charms, they’re far better known for their choice-driven narrative adventures: Life is Strange and its sequel. ĭontnod Entertainment haven’t been around terribly long, but have already gained quite a reputation. Return to your home town and investigate your old friend’s death in Twin Mirror. ![]()
