Olivia’s Mystery is one of those SNES games that hooks you right from the title screen—moody music, flickering lanterns, and this weird sense that something’s just… off. You play as Olivia, who’s basically Indiana Jones if he traded his whip for a notebook full of cryptic scribbles. The first puzzle hits you fast—some weird symbol carved into a wall, and suddenly you’re flipping through your inventory trying to match it with scraps of paper you found earlier.

The pixel art’s got that perfect ‘90s charm—detailed enough to make you stop and stare at the creepy portraits in the mansion, but still simple enough that your brain fills in the gaps. And the music? Haunting. Like, "I might leave a light on after playing" haunting.

It’s not just about clicking on stuff, either. Some puzzles make you think sideways—like rearranging books to cast shadows in a certain way, or realizing too late that the "harmless" vase you ignored three rooms back was actually a key. Frustrating in the best way. If you’ve got a soft spot for point-and-click adventures with a side of eerie, this one’s a time capsule worth cracking open.
