About

When a washed-up actor hangs himself on location, a spotlight is cast on the backwater Florida town of Cypress Knee. Your screen becomes a stage on which you investigate this mysterious suicide as three distinct characters: cheeky blogger Romana Teague, down-and-out local reporter Jack Bellet, and cynical private investigator K.C. Gaddis.

In itself, the overarching murder mystery story isn't bad, it just wasn't as engaging as it could have been if Romana, Jack, and K.C. had continued to interact with the story in their own, unique ways. Knee Deep is still an overall good experience, but it's clear that the final two episodes don't live up to the game's potential.

While the story kept my interest, it was not one that I would go out of my way to recommend to others. Those looking for backwoods-focused tales with a stylish presentation and weird circumstances/people would probably do better to play something along the lines of Kentucky Route Zero once it’s finally completed. Knee Deep is unique, but in the end fails to capture its potential into a truly memorable experience.
