My old friend Andreas urgently needs my help. He asked if I could meet him at the Lion's Head Inn, our favourite retreat in a quaint part of the city called Mirkway Quarter. He’s got a small apartment nearby where he makes a modest living off paintings he sells to pompous nobles and the odd merchant.

Not long ago, his wife Lily was hired as a servant at the manor of the local alderman, one Lord Marlow. Now she hasn't been home for days. Andreas went to the manor looking for her, but the guards shoved him into the gutter and warned him not to return. Andreas is certain that something bad has happened, and I don’t think he’s wrong.

Get ready to explore a mission where it takes you hours before checking off any objectives. I love missions like this, huge, detailed, alive, full of rooftops and vertical "thief highways", crawlspaces, sewers, windowsill entries, chain and rope walking, pipe climbing, key stealing, the whole kaboodle. And a bonus, the map shows your street loca...

...To spend several hours (I spent 7+ hours here) climbing, sneaking and generally exploring a large city environment. The City is absolutely beautiful. Lots of verticality, (up and down!) and lots of windows to climb in and mansions to creep around in, and this is it's strength. This mission really hit the spot for me, I really enjoyed the shee...

message   Good but too big and aimless.

This level is a great technical achievement but I didn't really enjoy it all that much. I appreciated the fact that there was a lot of verticality, places to go, and places to reach, but by the end I was really exhausted with all of the mantling, and I found the level design to be fairly aimless and frustrating to navigate. I'm aware there was p...

message   Highly impressive but definitely rough around the edges
skacky    27. Juli 2020 13:55

If you're looking for a really really large city exploration mission with many areas to explore and things to do then The Painter's Wife is exactly what you want to play, and it is in my opinion one of the very best at what it does. What we have here is an entire quarter more or less neatly divided into two halves, the north and south districts,...

message   Incredible. A new bar has been set for FM's.
tristamus    22. Juli 2020 04:01

In the past week, I've put about 6-8 hours into this one mission, on "Difficult" difficulty. I am ALMOST done, but I've yet to figure out how to deliver the papers to the Judge to convict Marlow of his crimes.

This one mission is akin to almost half of some game's entire worth of play-time if you are the kind who actually reads the notes, jou...

message   The curse of scale
peter_spy    12. Juli 2020 23:05

The ambition of this project seems to be about scale, but it's not clear to what creative end. Great impression made by the ambiance ultimately gives way to lack of focus, clunky navigation, and cringe-worthy damsel-in-distress story.

message   Diamond in a rough of city sandboxes
Mike    6. Juli 2020 18:08

The big and sprawling Painter’s Wife is truly diamond in a rough. It is classic city sandbox with all the nooks and crannies to explore. There is not one plot, but many – which often are interconnected in unpredictable ways and making the full impression of living district. There is a lot of variety of its locations – from big manors to small co...
