Today is the grand opening of The Isle Tide Hotel! Expect a live-action, interactive mystery movie about an absent father who must rescue his teenage daughter from an eclectic cult before their final night at the Isle Tide Hotel. Think a British Twin Peaks with a Wes Anderson aesthetic! Or, if that doesn't convince you, how about a grittier Knives Out? There's so much to explore and discover about The Isle Tide Hotel that one playthrough won't get close to telling the whole story. Why is your daughter estranged in the first place? Will you join the cult to save her? How will you interact with the bizarre people you meet? Each playthrough of The Isle Tide Hotel's branching narrative will be completely different, with seven main endings in your mission to rescue the daughter you've never met. Just remember… don't break the Etiquettes. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43208645/9c782eeaef7589cd09a03a1731c10d20a6bd524d.jpg Created by brother-sister director-producer combo Harry and Grace Chadwick of Interflix Media, the themes of The Isle Tide Hotel draw on the transformational journey of parenthood and the unique paths that can be taken when dealing with family dynamics. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43208645/0c5302aecad1055167a43dac51c405e601a451b2.jpg You don't want to miss our biggest production yet, with a cast including UK icons from shows including Game of Thrones, Call the Midwife and Happy Valley.

We have a brand new gameplay trailer to see just some of the decisions you'll have to make in The Isle Tide Hotel. What can you expect? Think Twin Peaks, but British, and with a Wes Anderson vibe. Or a grittier version of Knives Out (but with seven unique endings)! Play as an absent father who must rescue his teenage daughter from an eclectic cult before their final night at The Isle Tide Hotel. Save Eleanor Malone in this eccentric live-action mystery, where every decision affects the story. Created by brother-sister director-producer combo Harry and Grace Chadwick from Interflix Media, The Isle Tide Hotel takes inspiration from the transformational journey of parenthood.

Dear community, After our last post discussing the Skip feature, we've had a lot of feedback on what you think about it and how we could improve it to make your multiple playthroughs more enjoyable. We are proud to announce that we have listened to your feedback and the new and improved Skip feature is now live! What's changed? Once you have experienced the story for the first time, you will be able to skip any video. Additionally, if you have not seen the video before (even those that are similar but will have additional content) you as the player will be in control and get to choose whether to skip or not. To do this, you simply have to hold down the skip button to move on. For any videos you have not seen, when you hold to skip you will see the warning "THIS SCENE CONTAINS NEW INFORMATION. ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO SKIP?". {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41580713/7ac7defdc448a4616687e5499704297c8b916624.gif As always, we love to hear from you. Drop a comment below and if you haven't already, leave a review on the store page to let others know what you think! Wales Interactive Team Twitter Instagram Steam Youtube

Hello! First and foremost we would like to thank you, everyone, who has been playing recently, we have enjoyed watching your playthroughs, reading your feedback and have been taking notes of all your suggestions. https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1628130/view/3090038532608169285 One feature we recognise could have been explained better is the Skip function. To some, it may appear as if it's bugged or broken but the skip feature is only granted after your first playthrough of the game. It's a reward for your completion and to make it easier to fastrack past the scenes you've watched to unlock the hidden clues/stories or collect achievements you missed. Be careful what you skip! Some scenes may look similar to ones you've already watched but they can most definitely end differently. There is more information and possible evidence up for grabs in the new scenes that will help you find the killer. Even some extra story information for each character at the end of the game. We hope this helps and thank you again for playing! - Wales Interactive Team What did you think of the game? Leave your reviews on the store page to support the game on Steam and help others decide if it's right for them.

"One of the best FMV games to be released in years, ‘Who Pressed Mute On Uncle Marcus?’ is a brilliant combination of a relatable, oddball comedy and a whodunit mystery drama. The acting is superb, the script and editing is tight, it’s deeply replayable and it manages to balance its tone to take you on a really cathartic journey." Finger Guns 9/10 "Who Pressed Mute on Uncle Marcus? has now joined their library of FMV games, and is a twisting tale of family hatred, greed, murder, and dysfunction that may just make your family seem normal." Terminal Gamer 8/10 "After browsing a large number of full motion videos for a year, it is without hesitation in my favorites of the genre." IGN France 8/10 "A good old-fashioned ‘whodunnit’ mystery is always fun, and the modern twist here works very well." Game Spew 7/10 "Who Pressed Mute on Uncle Marcus? is another Wales Interactive FMV game that is hugely enjoyable, especially in the way they have worked with the constraints of filming, inspired by it to give the situation the characters are in some form of context. The actors are funny, committed, and interesting throughout, ensuring that you’ll want to take in a few playthroughs of the game. The Xbox Hub 7/10 "Who Pressed Mute On Uncle Marcus is that it is a great little game if you have a couple of hours spare and you don’t mind doing a little detective work. The acting is great and the different personalities of the characters make it fun and you actually laugh along with them. This game for me is perfect for a Saturday night with a loved one and a takeaway." Thumb Culture Gold Award 🏆
