One of those Mac magazines says this is the greatest game!
I have no idea why. Spoiler alert: nobody saw any thing, she didn’t confess and she was convicted.

Good
I really like this, especially the rewind aspects and highlighting your previous choices - I took off a star because there’s no option to turn off sound completely, I use my iPad for white noise for my child and would like to play at the same time but can’t as the sound effects are still going, even with the music turned off in options
Surprisingly brilliant
I personally need little persuading with Inkle’s interactive fiction apps (read 80 Days) but my fairly young son, who usually is indifferent to the printed page, got something of a buzz out of this dastardly dash too! Theme probably too much for younger children, though. As a big kid I can, however, only wait and hope Inkle will be back with more of these apps (I prefer iOS myself for this sort of thing) as they are terrific.
Excellent
Great little game with strong branching decision making and piecing together the full picture through multiple play throughs is very fun. The complete elimination ending is pretty special too. Definitely worth a purchase!
