Very shallow and short experience, the whole game feels like a demo. My play time is probably twice as much as it should take to finish the game, because I restated the game from the begining because of what I though was a bug. (Might have been or might have been a poor design decision, or maybe a translation problem ? not sure...) Perspective from different character is supposed to be important, but it really doesn't feel like it. I was expecting to see the same scene through the eyes of different character, but no, you mainly gather clues in different places depending on which character you are playing. The 3 cases are pretty straightforward and the worldbuilding was disappointing. The characters whoses perspective is supposed to be so important are one dimensional stereotypes. I was mainly disappointed because of the high expectations I formed while reading the description and some of the positive reviews, so it might be an enfoyable game for as long as you temper your expectation ...
