I had a lot of fun requesting a refund for this game. It is trash on fire with cancer and hydrocephalic characters. The refund was literally the most fun part. Would recommend to my dog enemies.

One of the fastest paced adventure games I've played. Feels terrible, along with the script. Possibly some cool pixel art, apart from that - not recommended.

The story is enjoyable as a thriller or a detective tv or book. it does show a sense of suspence. it is a short adventure but the story seems enjoyable for those that like detective thrillers or crime novels. it is effective plot

If playing video games is one of your hobbies you are bound to get a few hits and mess, especially if you buy a couple of them in a bungle, in this case, you should completely skip this game.
At least for me, this wasn't a £10 game, but it was still annoying, to say the least knowing I could have avoided this by doing more research into this game or playing it sooner and getting a refund, (I guess I would never learn).
Don't let the premade assets trick you into thinking this is gonna be a decent game, it's not. The dialogues are barebone and flat, being more focused on moving from another premade location to the next without any no form of interactive gameplay, like collecting clues or making choices which would have been a cool idea to be implemented in the RPGMaker engine, but no we don't get that which is a shame.
The way this game ended is just an 'L' to anyone who bothers to play it. If you don't believe me just look at the other recent negative reviews and compare them to the sketchy positive ones.
Hopefully, this has been helpful, now I gonna remove this game from my account and pretend I never consider it.

There is no way to put this nicely. This game has nothing that would make it a game.
There is no detective decision making process in the game apart from one trivial case. The game is broken to the level where you can just walk through maps if you want (except the labyrinth part). It takes six (!!!) minutes to finish the game. The music that you hear in the trailer is all that you get, both in the menu and during every scene in the game. There is an english version of the game, but it uses really bad grammar at some places.
I'm fairly sure that this was a school project of someone. If you buy this game, the only value you get out of it is the knowledge that you supported a potential future game developer.

Detective Story is an interesting game in which you have to play as a detective named Harold. Not a bad storyline and pixel graphics look very good

Detective Story is the simplest adventure game in which you play as a detective. In the game, we have to look for evidence, and also interview the victims. Good music, captivating gimplay. I recommend buying the game.

Jarringly fast-paced, short, and contains many graphical glitches (text randomly will change font or size, cars driving by clip out of frame and move extremely fast.
Just a lot of weirdness going on here. I like the tile choices, the character avatars, and all the switches and such that are used in making RPGMaker games seem to work as I would expect or desire.
I can't possibly recommend this game. Sorry!

A game without a story without being able to change the resolution as you wish and without being able to make even a snapshot in a nutshell a bad game

Look the game has 8 minutes worth of content. 4 minutes of it was a single maze at the end.
Its worth giving the developer the $1 they are asking because it would have taken them a few hours to build it. But as an actual game its pretty much none existent.
