I think Rain code is Kodaka's best story yet. Going from death games with Danganronpa to detective murder mysteries was the right call in my opinion. I liked a lot of the characters (barring some), and the universe was really interesting. Some may find issues with some of the writing, but I'm so used to it at this point coming from him, I'm all in. Gameplay-wise, I do feel the actual mystery solving portions lack a bit of a concise focus, but it's still fun piecing all the elements together. There are some performance issues despite being switch exclusive, like long load times and some frame drops here and there. I recommend waiting for a hopeful patch or two before picking it up. But all in all, I really enjoyed my time with it. The last few chapters were insane and couldn't get me to stop playing and find out more. Support the game if you enjoy danganronpa or murder mysteries in general.
