An adventure without the boring bits, Jenny LeClue: Detectivú is a sensational game that is well worth playing; just don’t expect to solve the case of the missing ending.
90%Jenny LeClue: Detectivu Review
The charming protagonist is crushed under the weight of a lack of challenge, and sheer boredom. First of all, this isn't an adventure game, but an interactive novel - albeit a very good one, but it has a mind-numbingly slow, artificially padded pace that it's hard to recommend it to anyone who expects good gameplay.
