I grabbed this game because I just finished paying Tango Tower which was great. I love Sally and detective Grim. Particularly I'm not so far I'm just getting finding the dead body whatever but I'm not really a fan of Jenny she seems I don't know I just don't care for her we shall see her progress

The only thing preventing me from giving this a perfect score is how disappointed I was at the ending of the game.

It ends very suddenly, on a cliffhanger, and none of the choices you make matter.

The only thing preventing me from giving this a perfect score is how disappointed I was at the ending of the game.

It ends very suddenly, on a cliffhanger, and none of the choices you make matter.

Anyone considering playing the game should go in knowing that the story is not complete! I believe I read somewhere that the developers are looking to make a sequel in a few years?

Now, despite this final disappointment, I absolutely adored this game.

  • The art is lovely.
  • The gameplay is simple but keeps you busy, especially if you are working on collecting gallery art.
  • The story is a bit of a roller coaster, with a mix of lightheartedness and heavy themes. I enjoyed that it wasn't afraid to frt meta.
  • The characters are cheeky and funny, but you can see Jenny slowly developing.

There's so much to love about this game. Ultimately my severe disappointment was because by the end I was a fan.

I picked this game up because it was on someone's list as a cozy game. I think I can agree with that - there is a level of intensity to the game and puzzles but there's no combat or time limits. You can take the time to enjoy the art and look for gallery items.

Overall I would still recommend!

This game has absolutely NO RIGHT being this well written or voice acted. This is amazing.

I loved this game. It was really fun running around and exploring and solving the mystery. The ending left me a bit bummed because it just didn't feel like a complete game to me. Still a fantastically fun game with a really cool story.
