This was fun! Love the concept of the deduction game being applied not to crimes a la Obra Dinn but to documentary footage. I do think the majority of the puzzles are too easy, amounting to one source saying "This thing happened on the same day as this other thing" and then another source saying "the other thing happened on June 7". Things get more interesting towards the end though.
The end choice where it asks you "who is the hero" was deeply confusing to me, since the game does a really good job of painting both main characters as flawed and realistic. I guess it's a testament to the writing, but I do wish they had just forgone that final choice.
