Hector: Badge of Carnage (E1) stars you as Hector, a detective investigator whatever in charge of solving the current crisis of the moment; a wild gunman holding hostages in a building with obscure demands. To meet these demands, you will use your “wit” (being generous here), lack of class, and various items and unwilling items.

This is probably one of the most vulgar games I have ever played where I still wanted to keep playing it so that has to count for something. As far as PnC mechanics go, most of the puzzles were fairly easy to solve and your simpleton assistant stands in as a sort of UHS for the more difficult ones. The interface is designed as if it were ported from/designed around a tablet interface (everything is left clicks or double left clicks) so you might skip some dialogue by accident from time to time if you are trying to rush things.

If I had to pick one thing to ♥♥♥♥♥ about it would be the voice acting. I get that it’s an indie adventure game but could you maybe hire more than 2-3 guys to do the voices? Besides that it’s a pretty good experience for around $2.30 (if you bought the series pack on sale). Just check your sensibilities at the door beforehand.

Its a good adventure game, has a slightly different system to some old school style ones. the adventure lasts about 2 hours and has some puzzles that are fairly challenging.

DO NOT BUY. This game is juvenile in the worst possible way, and I'm pretty sure the only reason it gets praised as much as it does is because Americans are conditioned to think that anything a dude with an accent says is automatically "clever". I've heard it described as "edgy" but it's only "edgy" in the same way that Family Guy is - which is to say it makes vulgar jokes at the expense of safe targets, tittilating youngsters in a completely homogonized, safe way.

And the puzzles are neither novel nor particularly difficult, so what's the point?

Rude, crude, and totally entertaining. Challenging puzzles with a hilarious story line. A must have for any one who liked Puzzle Agent.

The devs manage to fuse British humor quite well with adventure gameplay. While the plot is nothing special, the characters provide hiliarious and witty lines as you take the role of Hector, a drunk and sometimes perverted detective who is called to help negotiate a hostage situation.

The puzzles were straight forward for the most part, but some objects that you needed to grab blend in well with the static environment so you'll need to hover your mouse around at times to make sure you didnt miss anything. It isn't that bad. Hector or another character will provide comedic relief while you look around.

This is an episodic game, so expect 2 - 3 hours of gameplay, depending wheter or not you use puzzle hints.

No complaints on my end, other than tedious backtracking which might seem slow since you have to wait for Hector to walk across the screen. Would have liked a fast navigation if you double/triple clicked a path to speed things up a bit.

Definitely worth playing the game though!

I almost never laugh at games. In fact, being the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that I am, I rarely laugh at all.
Having said that, this game was bloody hilarious. This game is made of 2/4 win, 1/4 epicness, 1/4 pure liquid awesome.
In a world where most games are nothing more than polished turds, this game is like a bottled mix of Prozac and Valium that lets you ignore the depressing, anxiety-inducing ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that are mainstream games.

Because of the low price of this game it is well worth the buy. It is relatively short, but you will have a laugh playing it.

Although this is a little gem, don't buy it at 10 $/€. It's only 3 hours long. So wait untill you see it in a sale, and then just instantly buy it.
