First time in years I've stayed up all night to complete a game and find out what happens! - Cool story, definitely worth playing <3
I cannot recommend this enough. I haven't gotten this into a games story in a long time - the characters are well written and likeable, the mysteries are intriguing, and there's so many twists. I got it on sale but I would've happily payed full price. It seems the devs aren't active anymore which sucks because I could play 100 more games in this series and not get bored. If you have a chance, absolutely pick this up.
