I don't care that I don't understand the latter half of the story, I don't care if I had to pull out multiple guides to beat it. The art direction, dialogue, music, and vibes were too peak.

A perfect sequel to The Silver Case. Don't sleep on this ride. Don't miss this ride. SAVE THE LIFE. KILL THE LIFE. Oh, and SUDA owes me 50,000 ¥ + a PC port of Flower, Sun, and Rain for making me go through black out 100 times. Don't depend on the net. Depend on the net. God lives in the net. The net will guide you to all answers and wisdom. Doubt the net. Save the net. Kill the net.

The most insane, unhinged, hilarious, stupid, complicated, and mesmerising game I've ever played... Suda I kneel, 10/10.

Sometimes I find myself in awe of how good the character writing is in this game. It's really inspirational. It also helps that it has one of the most distinct visual presentations of any game I've ever played. You've probably heard of style over substance but for the 25th ward, there is so much style that it becomes substantial. That combined with the previously mentioned great writing makes it something I will remember for a LONG time.
