I couldn’t get into this the way I did with Strange Pictures, which I enjoyed a lot more!

Although that ending had me like…what?

Like its predecessor, Strange Houses has a fascinating concept, but the story itself is extremely far-fetched. It's hard to suspend disbelief that someone would see a dead space in between walls, and a room without windows, and plausibly arrive at the conclusions they do here, let alone for there to be some basis in fact, even if the revelations keep coming and are twisty. But I did enjoy scouring the maps for clues and it's fast paced and interesting - just ridiculous.
