Paranormasight: The Mermaid's Curse arrives on Switch as a clear continuation of the series' offbeat horror-visual novel formula. It preserves the inventive, self-aware tone that made the first game stand out while deliberately taking more time to build its plot and characters. Players willing to work through a measured opening will find a denser, more satisfying mystery by the time the pieces fall into place.

  • Returns to the franchise’s signature style: narrative-driven, spooky encounters that blur the line between player and story, maintaining the series' meta flair.
  • Slower pacing early on: the sequel invests in background and setup, which may feel sluggish at first but pays off in later chapters.
  • More complete storytelling: additional context and character development create a richer, more cohesive case compared with the brisker debut.
  • Worth sticking with: those who persevere through the introductory hours should find the payoff rewarding and in keeping with the original’s strengths.
