  • story11 mentions

    • “The puzzles and the story are well thought out, and sometimes there are more than a single way to solve them, leading to at least half a dozen different endings depending on your actions and choices. If you get through it once, don't hesitate to replay and try to do things differently. I spent the better part of a weekend collecting all the achievements and still not sure I've seen every single way to finish the case.”
    • “I love story-rich games, where I can discover every little detail on the maps, and the ending depends on my social interactions with the characters.”
