May 2025
Great mystery, managed to surprise me a lot, but always showed its working so I never felt cheated. Almost everything is cleared up by the end. Really enjoyed the main characters and the settings too. The gameplay isn't much to be honest. It's mostly moving boxes around and you don't really need to think too much. The translation isn't 100% and can be a bit confusing at times (particularly two character's names are mixed around on a piece of evidence).

Very good detective game that will put your mind to work if you want to properly solve all the crimes and mysteries surrounding the family. Highly recommended!

Not bad for a drama type of mystery game. I did get a bit bored with the repetitive hypothesis tree path gameplay, but not bad. If you like mystery and Japanese drama, this game is enjoyable.

This is a good game for people that love detective stories. I enjoyed solving the cases although I only realized at the third case that important clues were the ones you are not using. The end was a bit too melodramatic for me but cleared up the leftover mysteries.

It's pretty good. A nice murder mystery with an overarching story that's interesting. The only issue I have is that I guess I'm just not that good at figuring out who the killer is as I really struggled to get through even the first case. When it was finally revealed after save scumming I realised it was definitely me with the issue not the game, the evidence was all there. If I had any criticisms it might be that the actual mind palace is a little difficult as it gives you false clues and isn't super clear on how it works until you fiddle with it for a while, but considering it one of the only actual mechanics I'm glad it's there anyway.
