    This is an amazing 2.5D pixel art detective game with stunning visuals, a compelling and intriguing story and amazing voice acting. I didn't quite believe that the main character being stuck in the north for 10 years was credible. But during the walkthrough, after I met more characters and immersed myself in the story, the setting felt solid and genuine. I found the writing was brilliant. As I am from Hong Kong, I…

    This is a fantastic detective story that will leave you wanting to discover all the different possible endings once you have gone through a complete playthrough.

    剧情逻辑链崩盘,人物空洞且引发人强烈不适,很难想象这是发行于2026年的游戏 被游戏封面和交互骗进来的,结果越往后玩越觉得不对劲,整体剧情的大框架蛮吸引人的,但细节经不起推敲,再加上是男性向的,实在没有兴趣再玩下去了。 本来觉得交互设置做的蛮有意思,哪怕剧情有些不符合逻辑的地方也就看看就过去了,直到 主角和路人侃大山追女性角色,男凝味熏的我实在受不了了。 编剧眼里的女人只有性感,青春和萝莉这三种吗.... 重申一遍,都是2026年了还是这样一点长进都没有吗??
