Steam review snapshots
I'm a big fan of the first two games and this phone detective genre as a whole and I was very excited…Also has a little replayability, but there are a lot less choices / different paths & options you can take than the…The UI felt buggy, almost as if the game was in beta testing.so heres my review: —{ Graphics }— ☐ You forget what reality is ☑ Beautiful ☐ Good ☐ Decent ☐ Bad ☐…Why it fits
