    The story is a mixed bag, featuring an intriguing premise centered around a kidnapping case and the creation of clones, but suffers from inconsistent pacing and reliance on random inventory hotspots for puzzle-solving. While it starts with a serious tone, it shifts to a more casual and humorous approach, culminating in a somewhat abrupt ending. Despite these flaws, the addition of a new story segment is appreciated, making it a worthwhile experience for fans of point-and-click adventures.

    • “The entire story revolves around finding the mysterious arsenals and solving a kidnapping case.”
    • “His mission will take him to visit different places and meet eccentric characters; will he be able to solve the case?”
    • “The story is meh, and many of the puzzles aren’t solved through clues from objects, scenarios, or dialogue, but through random hotspots in your inventory.”
    • “Gradually, the story becomes more scientific, as the technique was able to create clone people from DNA, reviving both historical figures and creating fictional characters.”
    • “However, later the story feels more casual, like using a power washer to cure a blind lady.”
