Killer is way TOO Obvious! This is an interesting VN that takes the setting of a travelling circus in US. Pity if it had been voiced it would been even more great. Story: Fine Nothing super fantastic or plot twisting it is pretty mediocre in my opinion, with the logical flow. also a bit confusing at times. There seems to be a lot of unanswered questions. You follow the journey of a detective and a replacement…

Really fun game, be careful with the save files you can accidentally overwrite/delete when trying to load. Otherwise, start is a slow burn, but story gets good near the middle.

Based on price alone. The story is okay-ish. There's not much detective work here, since most choices are funneled into 1 or 2 places to go or person to ask. Lots of filler that does a good job of explaining the characters or the setting, but aside from this there isn't much gameplay. It's almost a visual novel. 5 hrs of well presented entertainment, I just wish there was more cases.
