4.8

GamesCreed

The open-ended deduction mechanics ensure that every case feels like a genuine challenge, while the game's strong narrative foundation keeps players invested in Esther Katz's journey for justice.
The game excels in combining historical accuracy with engaging mechanics and easy-to-grasp tutorials that make it a pleasure to play.
From a visual standpoint, the game's cell-shaded art style is striking. The pulp comic aesthetic of the 1950s lends itself well to the tone of the game.
The game itself is a lesson in history and morality, finding justice even in the face of danger and punishing the crimes of those who would have them forgotten.

The game requires a lot of thinking and remembering, which could put some players off if they don't choose to play the story mode.
The music, although fitting the theme for that time period, can get a bit much if played on a loop.
