Critic Reviews
Blues & Bullets: Episode One PS4 Review
A strong start for A Crowd of Monsters’ Noir adventure. Stylish, dripping in atmosphere, and compelling enough to keep you on the hook for the next episode. It has its faults, not all of which may turn out to be a problem when the series is finished, but for now they are outshone by the things this first episode does right.

Naturally, it's an interesting basis for a game, too, though Blues and Bullets send it off in a different direction.
70%Blues and Bullets: Episode 1 - The End of Peace Review
A lot of the issues with Blues and Bullets come down to the pacing, both that of the story, and the gameplay itself. While it manages to execute them both well, it hasn’t really grasped the best way to structure itself. There’s a lot of information to take in, and piecing the information together along with Elliot doesn’t always end up feeling satisfying. Despite its problems, however, it’s a truly gripping story, and the style will definitely leave those interested looking for more.
