    its unfair on its normal difficulty, but that's the point. you're someone with little power and a lot of responsibility, who was elected to be a scapegoat. there is an easier difficulty setting too, which i appreciate. really good detective/management game, makes your choices seem really meaningful because sometimes there's no right answer, and sometimes the best course of action is to not investigate a mystery.…

    A wonderful, causal mystery game that keeps you guessing.

I was intrigued at the prospect of solving mysteries and finding a traitor sounded fun as well. It had promise, but I think it fell short. First and foremost, to quote a Dangerfield joke you "don't get no respect!" I felt more like a dungeon master with a shaky weekend…
