I loved the presentation, lore and its heavy vaporwave aesthetic that encompassed its visuals and sound. However, this game is really more of an open world exploration game with a sprinkle of investigation and finding clues throughout. It felt similar to danganronpa where you speak to suspects and find evidence during its investigation segments, but on a much longer and bigger scale. So if you play the game with that in mind, you'll probably find enjoyment in trying to find every clue/collectable rather than thinking you're playing a detective game where you, as the player, have to work out the mystery The weakest part of the game is the investigation and trial. Once I stumbled upon a big plot point, I figured out the mystery, so it felt underwhelming in how the reveals were presented, not leaving room for things to be slowly laid out during the climax. The trial basically plays itself, with you being able to choose a suspect, but the protagonist presents everything without you having to put the pieces together. I overall enjoyed my time in this weird island dripped in dreamy retro neon, but I was hoping the story was just as captivating as the world itself

First thing first this game plays more like a collectathon more than anything else so keep that in mind when you buy it. Other than that if you like Danganronpa and wanted more of an open world experience and more of the exploration/clue collecting phase then this game is exactly that. The map design is great and overall really fun to explore and collect random stuff as you uncover more clues.

Paradise Killer is a visual novel/collect-a-thon/mystery game set in a city pop/vaporwave fever dream. You are Lady Love Dies, the investigation freak who is part of an immortal cult that worships eldritch horrors in an attempt to resurrect them and return them to power. Someone has murdered the council (in standard Locked Room Mystery fashion), and it's up to you to figure out exactly how Paradise was killed. Strengths: [*]The aesthetics and vibes are immaculate, and if you're into them there's a lot here for you - wandering around Paradise is awesome, and it's fun to explore while listening to the soundtrack (which is incredibly good). [*]The ability to accuse anybody of any of the crimes, as long as you can back it up with found evidence, is neat. This does make it fun to play through a few times to see how the trial could play out differently depending on what you do and who you accuse. [*]The vast majority of the murder mystery plot is well written and figuring out the twists and turns of the mystery is satisfying. [*]There's some super-cool worldbuilding going on with the timeline and the psychic eldritch horror gods, all of which get fleshed out a decent amount through the collectables and character dialogs. [*]The open-worldness works really well here - being able to direct the investigation into where you want to go next is fun. Issues: [*]As much as the game pretends there isn't, there is only one correct answer path through the ending trial that will touch all of the evidence collected. [*]Achieving said correct answer requires you to make accusations in a non-intuitive way, even after getting all of the files and evidence, because accusing people in the way you would expect to do so will leave sections of evidence untouched. [*]Very much a YMMV, but: there needed to be more in-game history shown between Love Dies and the Day Breaks (and the other characters, but mostly those two). As it stands, we're told "you guys were besties in the beforetimes" with very little actually shown. I understand why that history is there (spoilers) because there's an interesting question on how culpable they are given the competing conspiracies, and whether your past friendship should grant leniency for their roles but it flat out did not work for me at all. On top of that (more spoilers) the post-credit stinger after delivering justice to them just irritated me as it expects that you have some amount of like for them and I did not . Again, YMMV for this one. [*]Although there are dialog options, none of them have any actual impact on the game. Your choices will not do anything to help or harm your case - which makes the one single time that it does happen all the more jarring (spoilers) when Doom Jazz cuts you off for investigating Eyes . [*]Post-trial, depending on how things went, certain aspects end with a really off-putting tone shift. (spoilers) Really, we can't do anything for Henry? After everything, the best we get is flatly telling him "you can't leave this island" after he thanks us for believing in him? Not even giving him a choice in how to go out? . There really needed to be a bit more at the post-trial stage for closure on some of the storylines. [*]And lastly, there's a plot thread implication that gets ignored at the end that I feel absolutely needed to be dealt with, and is a huge misstep to not have it mean anything (major spoilers): Henry has Syndicate blood! He's not just some random Citizen, his father is Eyes Kiwami, who was a Council member! This should have had at least some impact but it's just glossed over after getting brought up as part of the Third Seal file. I do recommend this game - overall, the game is good and it's worth the trip to Paradise - but it's very much about the journey, not the destination. If you're down to investigate, you're okay with making your own conclusion at the end, and you dig wild lore and aesthetics, this a fantastic game.

Great game for murder investigation lovers, but be advised that the game has a lot of running and platforming because you physically have to explore every nook and cranny of the island.

I finished this game in 2 days, forgoing trivialities like "food" and "sleep." There is a LOT more platforming than you would expect from the description. I usually get motion sickness but the accessibility controls were good enough that it wasn't an issue too much when I was playing, so I wanted to give that a shout out.
