❤ Engaging Conversational Mechanics

Players must carefully navigate dialogues with suspect robots, leveraging advanced AI systems to extract information. Reviewers praise the depth and responsiveness of these conversations, noting that the robots exhibit unique personalities and consistently react to the player's statements and questioning strategies. For example, one reviewer describes the challenge of conversing with the robot 'Echo,' stating that it 'talks better than I do!' and raises their 'blood pressure' due to its evasive nature.

❤ Investigative Depth and Complexity

As players progress through the game's five episodes, they must uncover scattered evidence at crime scenes and piece together the larger narrative. Reviewers highlight the game's impressive level of investigative depth, requiring players to actively track clues, cross-reference testimonies, and make deductive leaps to uncover the underlying truth. One reviewer mentions using a 'pen and paper to keep track of all the linked evidence' due to the sprawling 'inspection board' within the game.

❤ Nonlinear Storytelling and Multiple Endings

The game's narrative is praised for its nonlinear structure, with players able to influence the course of events through their questioning and decision-making. Reviewers note that the game offers multiple possible endings, each dependent on the player's ability to navigate the complex web of truth and deception. As one player states, 'There's been a twist in both of them that made me gasp out loud.'

❤ Atmospheric Immersion

Reviewers highlight the game's strong sense of atmosphere, with the futuristic setting and cell-shaded visual style contributing to a compelling and immersive experience. The attention to detail in the game's environments and the effective use of music and sound design are cited as key factors in this regard. One reviewer notes the contrast between the 'bright, colorful anime art style' of certain elements and the 'dark, moody, cell-shaded style' of the rest of the game.

❤ Challenging yet Rewarding Gameplay

While some reviewers note the complexity of the game's conversational mechanics, with the robots' inconsistent behavior and tendency to lie presenting a significant challenge, the overall consensus is that this adds to the game's appeal. Triggering a suspect robot's 'confession mode' through skillful questioning is described as a highly satisfying and rewarding experience, further reinforcing the game's core investigative loop. As one player states, 'It's a mystery game like the ones I'm used to, but I had to play it in a totally different way.'
