6.5/10 point 'n click I liked the atmosphere but the writing is pretty flat, same goes for the characters. In that regard the game got the Rosewater treatment. It's pretty quick and the puzzles are very straightforward so you won't get lost + no long backtracking Overall you will have an ok time but there are way better options especially Lamplight City from the same dev

About This Game
But with the mob on his back, the Great Depression on the horizon, and the Sunshine State’s idyllic waterfront only a hurricane away from total devastation, Alfie finds much more than he bargained for.
Based on actual events and featuring real life locations and historical figures, you must guide Alfie on his journey to reach the top of the real estate game as he deals with shady salesmen, cutthroat bootleggers, corrupt politicians, and much more, all while swept up in the events surrounding the inception of Coral Gables, The City Beautiful.

Possibly one of the most uninteresting, boring stories I have ever played through. I just don't understand why they made a game out of this.
Great background art, and an interesting setting. Fun indie game. It tries very hard to make sure you won't get stuck anywhere. Some people might say it's too easy, but I think it's just a fun interactive experience and not trying to be a challenge.
It's a lovely game.
Well, playing till the end of this game give me mixed feeling. Is it a good game or a bad one I can't tell. The good is that there is a bit of historical story here, the bad is that it gives me a Deponia feeling kinda game. It is definitely a black sheep among other games I have played of this franchise. Give it a try when it's on sale, otherwise read other reviews before consider buying.
