Nice and short. Interesting story that is not too hard to deduce. Didn't really try to go for 100% of the clips.

A unique detective game. You watch clips of interviews of a woman, and figure out everything by yourself. You have to think of words to search for relevant entries. The game doesn't have an "ending" that you can mark as complete. You have to find your own ending, and that's when your are satisfied enough with what you've discovered. It's not a game of "complete this" or "figure that out". It's about satisfying our curiosity of how much you want to know about this case. I spent over 8 hours just looking for everything to connect the dots and figure out everything about the story. And then I reached a point where I think, I learned enough and have a solid evidences and proof about what really happened and who did what. That's where it ended and I think I'm happy enough with the game.

Incredible and Thought-Provoking. Great way to spend an evening, just make it a Friday evening so you can spend the weekend scrolling through internet theories and breaking your brain.

Long been a game I've been meaning to try, and very glad I did. Wholly unique compared to anything else I've played and piecing together the story via scrubbing through interview clips works surprisingly well. Despite the non-linearity of it, the game does a great job of always providing small threads in most clips for you to continue to follow and after an hour and a half I had a pretty good idea of what had happened. Were several moments that either made me go 'huh' or get goosebumps. It's nothing overly complex, but the way its all presented is very effective.

An interesting storytelling device more than a game, but incredibly well-done and thoroughly thought out. I enjoyed discovering the story on my own terms.

The game leans heavily into immersion. Making it feel like you are using an antiquated police tool to find and view videos. Which is neat, for about an hour. Then it becomes frustrating. I can't even begin to describe how frustrating, As you realize you need to sort hundreds of videos with a scroll bar that doesn't work and and interface that sometimes reverts your work. The story is reasonably good, but not nearly good enough to make up for it.

You can easily beat the game in <2 hours, but don't ask for a refund because that's mean. Fun game.

Having a button that says "delete session data" when there's an area to store clips called "user session" that instead of clearing that area RESETS THE ENTIRE GAME is the single dumbest oversight I've ever seen in a game and utterly and completely ruined the experience. Was really enjoying the gameplay loop and the content and the acting and then bam- I'll never open it again and am just watching the videos online. Just incredibly disappointing.
