Critic Reviews for BROK the InvestiGator
Solid and definitely have an audience. There could be some hard-to-ignore faults, but the experience is fun.
Brok the Investigator is a true original. It's a hodge-podge of point-and-click, side-scrolling beat-'em-up, visual novel, and find-the-object. Most of the time, these disparate ideas sit slightly awkwardly alongside one another, but despite a slow start we did eventually feel a little spark and the whole thing became more than the sum of its parts. It's all the more impressive given that it's just the second game from a one-person studio. Graphic adventure fans should absolutely consider thoughtfully pointing and clicking it onto their wishlist – or just drop-kicking the heck out of the buy button.
A compelling mix of adventures and beat'em up, BROK is one of a kind experience that players will definitely enjoy.

The mix of point-and-click and beat 'em up gameplay with a 90s cartoon aesthetic makes BROK the InvestiGator a unique adventure game that should not be missed.
Brok the InvestiGator sets you up with frustrating questions and then leaves them hanging. It even throws in sequel bait just to tease. There are multiple endings, but it feels like they got dropped in without much thought, leaving a feeling of wanting more. The blend of genres is a beauty, hitting those noir thriller tropes while revelling in chaotic fun. Truth be told, it falls short of tying it all together in a way that satisfies.
BROK the InvestiGator is a beautiful-looking game with great voice acting and a more profound and complex story than you usually find in a point-and-click game. It is challenging and will work your brain; luckily, the ads you discover hidden in the levels can be used for hints!
BROK the InvestiGator é um jogo charmoso que consegue combinar muito bem point-and-click e beat ‘em up. Com personagens carismáticos em um contexto futurista de críticas sociais ácidas, a obra sabe extrair o melhor de ambos os gêneros. Para qualquer jogador que curta títulos de aventura com foco narrativo, trata-se de uma experiência singular e imperdível.

I certainly respect the desire to create something different and the courage to tell a story with challenging themes, but I don’t feel like the game's components ever quite mesh and work together well.
