The beginning of the game, as seen in the demo, promises an interesting detective story. It is absolutely not - by the end of the game, the plot is absolutely perplexing, and the sudden twist makes characters feel like they're idiots. This is clearly a case of the game not having enough time in the oven. There's a lot of pieces here that suggest a much, much more interesting story than the one they told, and it really feels that they use a sudden twist in order to make a game completion deadline. Even the scenes after the twist feel disjointed and don't make much sense in context, as if they had a bunch of scenes developed for a more interesting, grandiose story that they couldn't piece together. I really, really wanted to like this game, but it's just baffling. The art remains good throughout, and most of the soundtrack is quite atmospheric, but it fails to deliver the experience that the demo promises, and it's not worth the price they're asking for it. Be advised.
