A small, pleasant sci-fi story
This game's story is centered around corruption, interplanetary politics, and a bit of family drama. None of it is particularly complex or hard to follow; in fact, I found it fairly easy to figure out most of the narrative beats well in advance(maybe it's just me). This, however, doesn't mean that I didn't have a good time with it: I think the story is presented well and flows nicely, and I did develop a bit of an attachment to some of the characters, despite the fact that the game doesn't run long enough to develop any of them much. I was satisfied with the ending I got; it was probably the "best" one, although I haven't tried playing the game multiple times. Gameplay: it's a pretty simple game, and your interactions with the world will mainly consist of walking around, having conversations, downloading news articles from billboards, scanning(i.e. clicking on) a few things here and there with your cyber-implants to collect evidence, and checking your cell. The game tracks all the conversations, clues(found and not yet found, so you'll know if you're missing something in an area before you leave) and other info you've collected in your cell, with a simple and intuitive UI. You'll need it to check all those things thoroughly to get a good impression of the world and a good idea of what's happening with the case. You influence the narrative in two ways: through dialogue choices(all timed, but it shouldn't be a problem if you've been paying attention), and through "sheets" you compile and submit, to your HQ or other interested parties, from your cell, with information collected during the game. I think the game presents a good amount of choice, and it informs you of the consequences of what you've done, although I didn't check how much things change in different playthroughs. It took me about 9 hours to finish, but that depends on how thorough you are; I also tend to play slowly. I liked it. Given the price, you could certainly do worse than buying this game.
