Things have gone from bad to worse, from unfortunate to bizarre, and from Kinda Suspect to Super Murdery. That’s Dontnod’s MO, and everyone should know it by now. The French developer loves examining personal relationships, amplifying them through the lens of a much larger conflict, and then heaping an avalanche of emotion on top of it all.
Twin Mirror is Dontnod’s first attempt at explicitly leaning into the psychological thriller label, something it toyed with in previous games but never outright committed to. In a lot of ways, it feels like Alan Wake by way of Life is Strange. However, Twin Mirror is also Dontnod’s first self-published game and that might be the reason it falls short of its promise. Everything isn’t quite alright in the end.
