Big improvement from the first game. Couple more branching paths and minigames. The dialogues between Joey and Xefros are fun too. Many reviews complained about the ace attorney stuff, and it did go on for a long time while feeling a too difficult. But it was still a nice change of pace from the typical format, Could be a lot better though. There was a lot less flavor text though when using items on the environment, which is a mixed bag. At least the flavor text feels more special and less overwhelming, but now environments feel more empty, but I guess that's the tradeoff for having more npcs. The huge discounts make it definitely worth a shot if you're interested

This game has great attention to detail and is very fun and replayable, but the jadeblood part is a bit tedious, even though I liked the concept of it
