The Good
- Welcome time capsule of a classic pulp character
- motion comics in Hugo Pratt’s original artwork
- extras offer a lot of fan service.
The Bad
- Puzzles aren’t integrated and are irrelevant to the story
- lacks compelling motive to continue
- no freedom to explore
- limited dialogue interaction and no voice acting.
Our Verdict
Underwhelming
There are some good elements that shine through occasionally, but generally the game is not a positive experience.
Hugo Pratt’s title character is nicely represented through collectible memorabilia and original artwork, but Corto Maltese: Secrets of Venice fails to deliver an engaging story or gameplay experience worthy of its source material.
