Steam reviews

What players say

Players mostly praise this free investigation game for its hands-on search-and-deduction mechanics and story, though many object to generative AI imagery and a few find the ending or pacing weak.

Most players recommend this free detective game, and the reviews are warm: many players enjoy searching the in-game archives, forums and databases themselves rather than being handed clues, and say the desktop-style interface makes them feel like real investigators. The story, the cult setting and the late twists are often singled out as engrossing and dark. Complaints centre on generative AI images, which some players find distracting or unacceptable, and on the difficulty of finding some information, with some players wanting more challenge. Several report problems with free-text answers that feel like typos, with translation quality, and with notes or auto-advancing screens. Some players also say the ending feels abrupt or the second half drags. Players who recommend it call it worth the time, especially given the price.

Praised

  • Hands-on investigation

    Players enjoy searching databases and forums for keywords themselves, with no handholding, which makes deduction feel rewarding.

    Many players
  • Atmosphere and presentation

    The retro computer interface, forum posts, database articles and music make the case feel authentic and immersive.

    Many players
  • Story and twists

    Players praise the cult plot and its late reveals, which recontextualise earlier discoveries and leave a lasting, dark impression.

    Many players
  • Free and good value

    Players are surprised the game is free and say its length and polish would justify a price.

    Many players

Criticised

  • Generative AI imagery

    Players object to images made with generative AI, which they find distracting, low quality or morally unacceptable.

    Some players
  • Hard-to-find information

    Players find key information shallow or the search wording unclear, and others get stuck on a single missed keyword.

    Some players
  • Ending and pacing

    Players find the ending abrupt, the second half slow, or the final reading screens too quick to finish.

    Some players
  • Interface and translation issues

    Players report notes not saving, screens advancing automatically, awkward answer checking and translation problems.

    Some players
Who it suits
Players who enjoy detective games, digital archive research and cult mysteries, and who don't mind reading heavily, will likely find it rewarding.
Who should skip it
Players who object to generative AI imagery, dislike text-heavy games, or want a challenging puzzle game with more depth should skip it.
