The verdict
Already a BANGER at $8.99.
Buy it. The price is already a steal.
$0.27/hr over the 33.6h main story, $0.15/hr if you 100% it (60.4h).
Heads up: only 5% finish a 33.6h game, so budget for the first stretch, not the full ride.
Better value than 99% of Narrative games
Jabberwock Island—You and your classmates were ready for fun in the sun until Monokuma returned to restart his murderous game! Trapped in a kill-or-be-killed situation, your only hope rests in solving the island’s mysteries.
