Reception

Loco Motive is a gem to behold for lovers of the genre or casuals alike. It’s an obvious recommendation made not just because I’m an adventure gaming fan writing this review, but as someone who appreciates a good game, and god dammit, this is one of those! You’d do well picking this up regardless of which system you own – you won’t be disappointed.

A solid whodunit point and click adventure game on Switch

With genuinely funny writing, superb voice acting and animations, Loco Motive is a modern homage that is sometimes a little too faithful to the LucasArts adventure games that pioneered the genre back in the day.

Loco Motive is charming at times, but the constant scars of its nature as the studio's first game prevent the experience from realizing its full potential. With a little more polish and a better balance between tragedy and comedy, Robust Games could have made something truly special, but they ended up with something frustratingly far from the finish...

Loco Motive arrived suddenly, without much announcement or fanfare, promising nothing and delivering everything. A picturesque story, colorful characters, solid gameplay and glorious visuals, it is one of the best point and click games currently available.
