Another Code: Recollection is a heartfelt experience that’s unique and fun, despite it not being the most challenging game around, and it's hard not to recommend. Now, let’s hope we see Hotel Dusk and its sequel Last Window released in a similar package soon!

All in all, I had a great time with Another Code: Recollection. I recommend it to fans of interesting stories, mysteries, and puzzles. It won’t provide a real challenge, but it has a great atmosphere. And if you haven’t played the original games, this is a great opportunity to fill the hole in your library.
The periods between puzzles and cutscenes feel like content droughts; they're too long and there's not enough to keep the game feeling engaging. It's primarily a walking simulator. The writing in the story babies you to the point that there is nothing to intrigue you or think about. You don’t have to be good at puzzles to play this game because it spoils...
Another Code Recollection is a sweet, breezy mystery adventure that's enjoyable but doesn't leave a lasting impression.
Another Code: Recollection is a chill, breezy return for a dormant Nintendo series that’s light on challenge but heavy on charm.
