What players say
Great story, acting, environments, costumes and art. While the story doesn't deviate much aside from death scenes, you can see their handcrafted environments, with great costumes.
Nice FMV, Good and funny story. An easy whodunnit. MVP is definitely Tie Sheng . Some annoying QTEs, as per the usual. Glad I finished it. Definitely worth price.
A great FMV experience. At times it made me laugh, at other times it kept pulling me in with its intriguing story. It had a few surprising twists and overall turned out to be much longer and richer than I initially expected, with a story and cast of characters that expanded nicely throughout. Definitely worth the time!
