Good overall, but has some issues.

This game is beatiful and the story is interesting. I just with the expereince of trying play it was better, This game is amazing if you can put up with the controls. This game was not intended for play with a mouse and keyboard. in fact this game lacks any mouse support whatsoever, The keybinds are also fixed, I hope you like playing keyboard only or with a controller because you have no choice. I hate harping on this but the game does not control well. I wish it did but it doesn't. The real porcupine in the mix are the segment where you need to both climb an object and push it wich uses the same buttons. You'll often find yourself pushing an item you intend to climb and while it doesn't come up often it does some up. The games journal is nice but clunky due to the lack of mouse support. Combine that with the controls being slow, janking and sometimes unresponsive and its not ideal. Its also not always clear when you can run and when you cant, sometimes run isn't availible and you'll find yourself pressing it fruitlessly. The game doesn't punish you too much for this but anything it makes you backtrack you're going to be feeling the sting. Its rare but it happens. I hope the next entry does a UX Pass because this game needs one. I should probably be more forgiving its clearly a linear game meant to be played once and its not bad at any level. The controls just mean its not one I'm likely to replay anytime soon. I don't wanna discourage people buying this game just... play it with a controller and save yourself.

Great fun for adults and children

Got this game for my wife and I, we love modern point and click and Jenny LeClue seemed to be in a similar vein. It has some puzzled but is mostly a delightful interactive story which is supurb. It ends on a cliffhanger and to date the publisher hasn't released the sequel. It will leave you wanting the second title but the game is well worth the purchase.

Great mystery detective esque game

Its an absolute banger of a game. I cannot believe it is not being talked about more. Not really much focus on hard detective puzzles, but great atmosphere and story

Annoying childrens game

I stopped playing this 1-2 hours into the game. I did this because Jenny was annoying (her voice and her self-righteous, precocious attitude) and her town is ... something between cliché and boring. Gameplay: I was expecting some sort of regular point+click adventure, but it is rather extremely guided - you have a one dimensional moving space (left+right) and hit the button displayed to advance finding hints+stuff, advancing the story. Sometimes you get a 2D search subarea. Sometimes you have to combine the relatively obvious hints to a given question. The difficulty is suited for children of maybe 8-10. I did not like the setup either. In the beginning in the meta story, there is a letter from the producer of Jenny stories with some criticism about the story setup. It is made so that you should disagree with it, but in hindsight I actually agree with it. That world is boring, just too goody shows. my cons: - annoying main voice+character - contrary to other reviews the setup did not click - too dumbed down - erratic auto save only (no manual saving) my pros: nothing, actually It is not bad in all areas, from my perspective there is just nothing it excels at.

A gorgeous, if flawed, picturebook game

Know what you're getting yourself into before you buy: despite the concept and story, this is not in fact a detective game, you are not expected to solve any mysteries yourself through deductive reasoning or anything of the sort. The roots of this game are much closer to that of a Telltale game, right down to the "choices" you get to make that have no impact on the story's progression. What's more, the game ends on a cliffhanger, a major one at that, and the sequel has no release date as of writing. So if you're not getting a detective game, and you're technically not getting a *finished* game, then what are you getting? In short, what is advertised is something like a storybook. You get an experience that's heavy on the narrative with a sprinkling of basic puzzle solving to break up the pace, with no shortage of unexpected twists and turns suited for the mystery genre - all bolstered by voice acting that elevated it so greatly, I can't even picture the game in its original state without it. Having played through to the finish, I can't say I can see myself coming back any time soon, partly due to its very linear structure and partly due to some incredibly slow gameplay. At times, it felt like I was spending more time scouring the area for secret optional collectibles than actually playing the game, which added a negative level of tedium. But in the time I spent playing, I found myself engrossed in the stories being told, and curious where things would lead. It's not a game for everyone, but if the narrative manages to grab you, you surely won't be disappointed to see it through to the end.
