Worth a Playthrough
Others have said it better, but here's my two cents. The court system is really good, and you actually have to think about the evidence, and its meaning in the case. If you get all the connections right, you have an opportunity to sway the jury to the outcome you want with your questions, which may or may not line up with the wants of the various political factions you need to appease to avoid placing your head next in line for the guillotine. Alternatively, you can execute (or set free) literally everyone who enters your courtroom, damn the consequences. It really makes you feel like a Revolutionary Tribunal judge. To bring it all home, the art style is striking and unique, and gives a depth above what you'd expect at a glance. There's a reason nearly every review calls the game beautiful. Are there issues? Yeah. The audio during long cutscenes would consistently glitch every few seconds and make an annoying noise. The writing isn't going to win a Peabody, but it serves the game well enough to keep things moving. Even the sudden twists that other people complain about, and for good reason, didn't really leave me annoyed, moreso just gave me another hidden party to consider while judging, which I hope was the developers' intentions. The third act entirely feels really disjointed from the rest of the game (though admittedly I was invested enough to get really into it anyway). The dice game is completely pointless, though. I genuinely don't understand why it's there, other than maybe to add some randomness and frustration to each playthrough. If you enjoy games that make you put clues together and balance political desires (both your own and other parties'), I highly recommend this game. The political balancing and art style really make it unique and worth playing.
