Should be subtitled "Robo-Poirot"
This dialog based point and click from the guy who did Thomas Was Alone has a really thought provoking story. In retrospect, it has some themes in common with Detroit: Become Human -- though really it should be said that Detroit shares themes with Thomas Was Alone and Subsurface Circular. It's not the greatest game of all time, but it's short, sweet, and doesn't outstay its welcome.
