I waver on this game the same way I wavered on Hustle Town. I don't not like the game, but I don't think about the game between releases. There are a lot of good things about this game, but they are overshadowed by what I feel is poor execution.
The story is interesting in theory. You're a P.I. that comes to town on "vacation" but end up stumbling into a huge mystery. I love the synopsis. However, this is where execution comes into play. So much of the story is click on the lit up location tile in the navigation bar, go have a brief conversation with one person, then go to the next. The whole plot is built around clicking the next place. This is the kind of game where real sandbox would make so much more sense instead of the hand holding sandbox-on-rails that this is.
The models are nice, but it's a bit like whoville discovered porn. The characters all look kind of Dr. Seuss inspired. There is very very very littler variation in the female models. They all feel like the same bae model with slight tweaks like hair or skin tone. They are cute, but when it comes to remembering characters, and they are referred to a lot in conversation, I can't remember who is who. The MC is much better in this game than the one in Hustle Town, he isn't as dopey and aloof. I like the visuals, but there needs to be more variation in the female models, even some of the males look closer than I would like.
The writing is quippy and mostly mistake free. Interactions between characters seems realistic and personality driven rather than each character fitting into a tight architype like other games seem to do. The story is well enough but it's light on impactful choices.
Overall, I like this game. But it just doesn't leave a lasting impression. I find myself mindlessly clicking through sometimes. Play it if you are really looking for a game, but don't expect to be blown away.
