REVIEW
This installment in the Strange Investigations series delivered a good detective story with some familiar tropes. The excellent artwork enhanced the overall experience, while the theme-appropriate music added to the immersion.
I enjoyed the continued innovative feature of collecting objects after the game ended. The high-quality voice acting brings the characters to life, contributing to the immersive experience.
The game has flaws. The price feels steep for the relatively short gameplay. Some animation choices, like characters walking away, felt odd and could have had better execution. Moreover, the bonus content, though enjoyable, is disconnected from the main game. I would've preferred to see more of the main story from a different viewpoint or angle.
Nevertheless, the game is a solid addition to the Strange Investigations series. It strikes a good balance between story, gameplay, and immersion.
