User Reviews and Ratings
★★★★★Fun Retro Game
I really enjoyed this game. I didn't get a few of the puzzles, but overall it was a fun immersive game. I miss games like this.
★★★★★Gave me something to look forward to
I work a super stressful day job and by the time I get home, I am completely drained. This game honestly gave me something to look forward to at the end of my day, to the point where I would wonder what clues I could have missed while I was at work. This was a nice reprieve from a pandemic hellscape and I really enjoyed every character and case. Thanks for the hours of fun!
★★★★★Amazing Game
I was absolutely hooked from the beginning and for being so cheap, the game was much longer than I expected. If you’re into detective games I’d really recommend buying this one. I loved the storyline and suspense.
★★★★☆Grew on Me
Didn’t like it at first as there’s a TON of dialogue (twice as much as Thimbleweed Park or WOAM), and you can’t pause it, so if you have someone talking to you in your home, it'll cause issues… Not too much gameplay, but where it differs, and where it grew on me, is that you really can pick which suspect to accuse and get it both wrong and right, as well as how to approach certain conversations, and that does change the game. Yeah, I’d recommend it.
★★☆☆☆So slow..
I love detective games, but this one was just too slow for me. I really tried to like it (since I paid $5 on it)... but the settings and characters are so plain and boring.
