A serviceable puzzle game the revolves around a unique time-manipulation mechanic. While never particularly exciting, it was still cozy and fun to work my way through the ~8 hr story. I have never watched more than a few clips of the show, so I was not too invested in the story either.
Overall, I would give it a 6/10.

Peaky Blinders: Mastermind offers a refreshing take on the puzzle-adventure genre, weaving tactical gameplay with the gritty atmosphere of the popular TV series. Its time-manipulating mechanics and strategic planning challenge players to think like Thomas Shelby, orchestrating heists with precision. However, its short length and occasional technical hiccups may disappoint some fans. Despite this, its faithful recreation of the Peaky Blinders universe and clever level design make for an immersive experience. While not without flaws, Mastermind captures the essence of the show's intrigue and suspense, offering a compelling gameplay experience for fans and newcomers alike.

The game is a puzzle game first and foremost. Manipulate different characters to get them through an area and finish objectives, all of it under a certain time constraint. The game is good and not too hard, but I felt like it went on for too long. It's probably a must have for people that enjoyed peaky blinders, but don't overlook it if you didn't know anything about the series.

Its a bit challenging, but a fun game to play nonetheless. Took me about 8 hours to 100%, there are lots of guides that I highly recommend using. One of the achievements is "Get 3 perfect games in a row" and it's a lot easier if you do that on your first run of the levels, instead of going back through and replaying.

A fairly short, but a very enjoyable game. Loved the concept of the time rewind. Big high five for the development team!
