Nice game for a few days! there is even variability. But too much blah-bla-blah! Staying in one place and asking or speaking 4 stars only for it. Nice design and music. Wish a bit more locations. It’s possible to stuck when you ask or say something wrong. Thank you for game!

The atmosphere and setting are great…unfortunately the game consists simply of long winded conversations that have little bearing on the plot. There really is not any problem solving, just moving from irrelevant conversation to irrelevant conversation. Only about 20% of the dislogue is useful and of that, only about another 20% is interesting. Unfortunate as I’m a big fan of other games by the makers and folks involved in producing it. Was hoping for a steam punk Gabriel Knight…unfortunately got little more than a meandering script for a bad WB pilot…

I definitely got stuck a few times and it was frustrating when I messed up one small thing and couldn’t finish the case her and there but the storyline was genuinely good. I wish this was a show ngl because the characters are well developed imo. If you like crime/detective narratives then I definitely recommend. (Definitely requires a solid amount of observation to get a good ending)

I appreciate what they are trying to do, but I think this game misses its mark and gets bogged down in tedium. I love old style point and click adventure games, but this one has WAAAAY too much dialogue, and WAAAAY too many pointless hotspots that lead to more pointless dialogue. I also wish there was more of an inventory element. I had to put it down after a little while.

I played this for maybe 30 minutes and found all of the social justice stuff to be exhausting. Perhaps that’s appealing to some, but many of us play games to escape reality. This game was just rapid fire, one talking point after another, rinse and repeat. Loved the other games by this developer but the preaching in this one was too painful to continue. Also, more importantly, it was really boring - just a bunch of talking. Deleted already and totally regret paying for it. Lastly, this one shouldn’t be listed as 12+. Many of the mature themes are wholly inappropriate for tweens/younger teens.

Keep getting a “scripting error” when I try to proceed in the game during the early stages. Frustrating because I was really enjoying it up until then. Would not recommend purchasing this game until it gets updated.

The majority of the player input in this game is in choosing dialog options. You do pick up and use items, but you don’t really have a traditional inventory menu, or choose which items to use and when. For example, you may find a locked door, and later find the key, but to use the key you’ll just click the door again after getting the key. There aren’t many puzzles to solve, so it’s mostly dialog, and finding the clues to lead you to the right suspect. It is possible to accuse the wrong person and have them arrested, but with enough investigation it becomes clear who the right suspect is. The story was okay, but the gameplay left me feeling more like I had watched it than played it.

Amazing game. Excellent graphics. Reminiscent of the old Sierra games from the 90s PC. Easy to use UI.

I loved this game until the last part (5) where it wouldn’t let me access the fire to translate the piece of paper. So frustrating! Tried restarting but still didn’t work.

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.
