BROK the InvestiGator Reviews

I've played this game in February earlier this year, and got several of the endings! Initially, I didn't quite know what to expect gameplay-wise, because although I'm acquainted with point-and-click games, I don't usually play beat-em-ups (let alone a game where the beat-em-up mode is toggle-able), but I'm glad that there is a "Relaxed" difficulty since I'm intrigued with how the story would play out. I found the controls clear, the puzzles fun, and the beat-em-up segments surprisingly satisfying to play! :) In addition, I'm genuinely charmed by the story, characters, and voice acting :D Those aspects got me really invested in the game and I ended up completing my first playthrough of BROK in a few days. This game switches between being intriguing, fun, and emotional regardless of what path I headed through, and there's a surprising amount of great detail to the interactions within the game. I can easily see myself coming back for the fun character interactions, quick fights, emotionally-weighted moments, and especially the various endings, some of which I still plan on obtaining ^^

I'll be honest in saying I originally got this game based off the pun alone. I didn't expect to be hit with a story like this however. It was a fun mix of point and click goodness with beat em up that I didn't expect to work so well. Not to mention the art style and character designs, with my favorites being Brok and Graff. I would absolutely recommend this game to anyone.

A game that is hard to put down, it makes you want to go back into it and try different things to see what happens. I finished this on both PS5 and PC and cannot wait for the upcoming DLC and any future chapters. The idea of having a beat-em-up, point and click adventure, is one of the most unique and interesting ideas that has come out of the indie scene in a long time. It's a game that isn't afraid of letting you make bad choices. Want to punch Graff right in his cute face? You can, but you will suffer for it. Not only is it a great story, with great characters and great music, it is a game that makes you want to keep trying different options to see all the endings, where you're free to do what you want. There's no hand holding, if a puzzle is too hard, hit it! If a fights too hard, figure out how to get around it with puzzle solving! One of my favourite games to come out, and I really hope we get a more advanced sequel in the future. I want more puzzles, more fighting, more choices and more fun. Thanks COWCAT for making this game, truly an amazing piece of art and literature.

It's a game full of personality. The combination of beat-em-up and VN, along with the engaging story, creates a truly original experience.

I've seen playthroughs of this game all over and I love the theming, hope they make a sequel! Also, love Michael Kovach as Graff! Can't wait to play the Bar Brawl either!
