SFB Games Announces New Murder Mystery Game

The Mermaid Mask, the upcoming point‑and‑click adventure from Tangle Tower studio SFB Games, opens with a classic whodunnit scenario: a submarine captain is discovered dead in a locked cabin, his body beside a mysterious cauldron from which blood drips across the floor. Players are immediately thrust into a tense investigation, tasked with interrogating a colorful ensemble of suspects aboard the vessel.

Among the crew are a cantankerous author drafting a sequel to his bestselling novel, an actor portraying the novel’s lead in a film adaptation, a young illusionist who performs elaborate stage tricks, and a man devoted to the study of dreams. Each character offers clues and motives, while the submarine itself provides a richly detailed environment for exploration and puzzle‑solving. The game promises to blend atmospheric storytelling with classic point‑and‑click mechanics, delivering a murder mystery that feels both fresh and familiar.

SFB Games’ new title is slated for release later this year, and more details can be found in the full review on The Verge.
