Video games are well suited to explore cruelty. Inside their consequence-less bounds, we're able to persecute, wound and haunt virtual creatures, experiencing the illicit thrill of vindictiveness without the guilt chaser. We smirk as we send oblivious...
By eurogamer.net onWayward Manor has charm for the adorable-goth market, but not so much for puzzle game enthusiasts. It's simple, slightly janky and kind of cute, with an OK story and sub-par game design. In the game, the one Budd family member who is all right by the manor's standards is a young girl – perhaps this game is intended for that same audience, children who don't have as critical an eye for puzzle solving.
By Joystiq onThe Wayward Manor is a good, lighthearted puzzle game, but people looking for more engaging story or gameplay won't want to haunt this mansion. An old ghost awakens in the attic of a decrepit New England mansion to find that the venerable...
By Tom's Guide onThe saddest part about Wayward Manor is that I know that The Odd Gentlemen made a great game; I kept asking myself, “Is this really the same studio that made The Misadventures of P.B.

By GameSpot onFor a game with such a well established author behind it, Wayward Manor is a little disappointing. However it is quite endearing. Perhaps a game to be played with your children, rather than viewing it as a fully fledged puzzle...

By PC Gamer onWayward Manor é um jogo com o principal diferencial sendo sua história ser produzida pelo famoso escritor Neil Gaiman, que fez um trabalho misturando macabro com lúdico. Para os fãs, ainda é possível ouvir a voz do autor no início das fases e se divertir...
