Despite keeping an eye on the updates for the game over its long wait for release even the opening section caught me off guard, instantly piquing my interest. I wouldn’t want to spoil any of the moments of the game as it’s definitely best played by going in with as little knowledge as possible.

Which makes it quite difficult to tell you why I enjoyed my time with Martha is Dead fully. It’s not an easy ride, far from it, but the character building and flow of the story are quite simply excellent and a testament to LKA’s talent as a studio. Martha is Dead however joins very select titles in being a game that not only was interesting to play but also fully had me hooked in the narrative from start to finish. It takes a lot for me to find myself fully enraptured in a game’s story most of the time I kind of get the gist but just want to get on with playing.
