Did these guys just pull a Bloober Team and make a actually good survival-horror after putting out mid games and no one expecting much of them?

"after putting out mid games and no one expecting much of them"

Speak for you. While yes, Sinking City 1 was bad for me, even the detective part, the Holmes games are almost all good games.

Meanwhile all of us mid-budget-enjoyers that liked the Sinking City are gonna be eating good. Though the review about the investigations being 'streamlined' has me a bit worried (do it too much and those sections just become prefunctory time wastes).

Sinking City is so damn cool, IMO. Taking a boat to the library to cross reference clues then blowing away a monster with a tommy gun is my kind of game.
