About

Hector Badge of Carnage Full Series is a three-part episodic game that follows Hector, an alcoholic detective with a tough character and strange habits. While the game is split into episodes that were released as separate titles, it has a single plot: Hector investigates the case that can be solved only with his unconventional methods.

The story starts with Hector holding negotiations with a terrorist who took hostages. The sniper wants the protagonist to complete quests around the town. These missions are quite humorous and include such tasks as fixing the town clock and shutting down a pornography store. Because of such humor the game with 2D cartoonish graphics is not allowed for kids.

Hector features point-and-click gameplay with a heavy focus on dialogues and less - on puzzle solving. Not all solutions in the game are obvious but, as a rule, you don’t have many items to use so variations of your actions are quite limited. Another situation is with dialogues: choosing the right lines simplifies completing quests, as Hector can solve almost any problem talking to other characters in a suitable manner.

Hector: Badge of Carnage - Full Series reviews and comments

Nothing will be spared... still a lot of jokes "scatos"... poor cow:) This third episode concludes the adventure of our Inspector, which ultimately gives a good ten hours of play. A very British humor mixed with a lot of profanity and situations funny even trash. An interesting game, an atmosphere that is noted in the library of the games tell tales. To buy on promotion, you have to do the 3 episodes to have a reasonable lifespan. However, the lack of French localization is really a drag if you do not master English because the dialogues are numerous and contribute a lot to the "richness" of the app (the dictionary of the big words and the English ARGO has to pass).

there is. It's done, I finished the 3 episodes. My balance sheet is the same as for the previous two chapters. Funny and imaginative. This episode 3 closes brilliantly the trilogy by making us play the conclusion of the case that we follow since the first episode. Count, just like for the previous two episodes, between 4 (if you're very smart and/or lucky) and 5 (if you're like me) hours to finish this episode. In short, the series Hector: badge of carnage is a very good little known trilogy of telltale games that is worth a visit for a small total of fifteen hours of play. Warning however (yeah, had to find something negative to say), the game is in full VO (text and voice). If you do not practice a minimum the language of Shakespeare, you may pass by a lot of valves... or worse... next to indications that will allow you to find a solution twisted to a riddle.

At first I wondered that the first two Episodes don't have a Shop page, but then you explained that you get the one in the Complete package (I have individual Parts of a single Package on Steam). The Graphics are cool drawn and the Game just has a Lot of Humor. I have to stress here that Point & Click Games never particularly appealed to me. But you slip here in a strangely sympathetic Character, which is also at the same time a real ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ Hector always makes funny Allusions to different Objects and People and the Solutions are ... Well, I say unrenovated. We use a hired Criminal as a Jumpstart or bring dry Alcoholics back to Happiness. Sometimes the Puzzles are quite difficult but overall I often burst into Laughter, given the really funny Dialogues. The Game time is also completely acceptable (About 10-12 Hours for all three Parts) and it is quite worth buying. But Beware: The Game is only in English and there is a lot of Accents played, so you can't easily understand some Words anymore. It is only for advanced English Characteristics, which are also improved by this Game. Did the Review help you? Then follow me in my Steam Group, where I write my Reviews as a Curator.
