A fun little game for what it is. Not actually a point and click game despite having the tag. Instead it is a logic and deduction game where you solve cases by collecting clues and then through the process of elimination figure out the answer. There is no hunting for items and then figuring out how they work in puzzles. The game is so simple it can be easily played with a controller. Positives + The 2.5D graphics are nice and bring depth to the game. + Most of the puzzles aren't too hard and all can be figured out with deduction and logic. Except the server puzzle, no idea how you're supposed to do that one. + You can make different choices which affect the ending. + I found the story interesting including the moral dilemmas. Neutral +- The new 2D graphics are terrible, but thankfully optional. And when I say 2D I mean 2D, as in the perspective is flat. It's ugly and removes all depth. +- Not a fan of being unable to have multiple saves, but the game isn't hard and there are no deadends. +- While you do have choices, they don't make much of a difference except for the ending. The story progresses unimpeded even if you solve the cases wrong. But you do miss out on a certain confrontation if you get a specific puzzle wrong. Negatives - The camera instantly jerks in whatever direction you start moving. Very disconcerting, but you do get used to it. - At $16 it's way too expensive for what you get, which is about 6 hours for a first playthrough if you're very thorough and read everything. Wait for a good sale like I did.

I recommend this game and disagree with some of the complaints about the way inventory is handled and how much backtracking you have to do. I have my own complaints though. The way this game is set up is not intuitive at all. You don’t ever interact with your environment, you collect evidence/items and present them to people to get information. In one case I got a tool to get logs from some computers, There was no computer screen that popped up or anything, I just got weirdly abstract icons in my inventory that had the information I needed in the description. Some beeping or download icons on the computer screen would’ve been nice. This is all fine, just strange. Coming from Lacuna, I was very happy to see they kept the high-stakes setup with only auto-saves and case decisions being permanent, even if you get them wrong. I do think the developers are being a bit obnoxious with not having an option to turn that off, the way they have an option to turn off timers. All that’s doing is driving people who want to savescum into their game folders to copy out saves. Or just making people hate the game. I wouldn’t use the options because I hate myself and need to suffer, but they should be available. I really liked that I could pull the trigger on completing a case immediately with no evidence if I wanted to. Deciding *when* to complete a case was as much fun as solving the case, There is a space cat in the game. Regarding the complaints about inventory: Yes, this game does not have a good inventory system. There is no sorting or labeling. The dev’s solution to inventory pileup is a series of filters you can cycle through to bring up different types of items, like profiles of people, locations, documents, or whatever. This worked better than I expected it to and was perfectly adequate for the size of your inventory even at the end- game. Not the best, but adequate. As far as backtracking goes, yes, the game can turn into a whole lot of annoying walking back and forth if you let it (I let it for a while). Trying to collect all the evidence in the game was miserable. Trying to collect *enough* evidence was a thrill ride. The cases themselves were wonderful, another rare detective game that doesn’t resort to unhinged deductions that nobody would ever make for later cases. I think my only issue was during my first case, I didn’t know how deep the rabbit hole went, and if I should expect to be double or tripled crossed or whatever. Once I got a feel for how treacherous the devs were being, I had a great time.

Recommended with the caveat that this is NOT super friendly to people with ADHD or who don't like replaying a game. I thought i had the solution a couple times but it turned out to be a coinflip that i got wrong. Still, the world is great, the writing is good, and the gameplay is solid. It is a hardcore mode only game, which i think is its biggest flaw. Let people savescum. It's an accessibility issue.

A fun detective game. I liked thinking through the cases and gathering evidence - in most cases, it was pretty clear how to put the pieces together. The UI and movement is clunky (why can't we just teleport to a room?) - it didn't ruin the game for me or anything, but it did detract from my enjoyment. The game is also very linear - despite the constant claim that the story would react to your choices, I never felt that was really happening. Maybe more optional dialogue that wasn't directly related to the mission would have helped. Despite these complaints, I still enjoyed the game. It's a fun setting and exploring the ship and solving the cases ultimately outweighed any complaints about the gameplay mechanics. It's not my favorite detective game of all time, but it's a fun experience.
