Very fun VN based on mixing battle of wits and Higurashi-style howdunit mystery designed to be "solvable" by the reader before the solution is presented. Almost all events are possible to foresee on some level by following hints, which I really appreciate. The battle of wits was fantastic, piecing the various puzzles and whodunits was satisfying, the MC is fun and doesn't fall for usual problems of his trope. There are some weaknesses (below average voice acting, insistence on adding romance everywhere, + some spoilery issues) but I will still jump on anything sequely or similar from the devs if it comes.
Pretty cute story in a setting which I think could give a good fight to one of the most romantic settings of a romance story by mankind. It's the type of story where the main act structure and most events are almost entirely obvious from the first few scenes, but it was still very comfy to see it play out to the end. (Surprisingly for me considering how vanilla it is, I feel like I still need some more time to internalize it, so it might be a bit deeper than I made it out to be.)
Fun game, love 90s japanese detective whodunit stories, and the art style is so cool. A couple of the puzzles were a bit annoying, but otherwise pretty smooth for such an old investigation game.
