Une ambiance horrifique japonaise magnifique
Il n?y a pas de jump scare
Des personnages attachants
Des graphismes manga soignés
Des décors et des personnages animés augmentant un peu plus l?immersion dans le jeu
Une bande-son et bruitages au top
Beaucoup de lieux à visiter
Une durée de vie adaptée
La traduction française de qualité !
Le résumé lors de la reprise de notre partie
Quelques dialogues qui trainent en longueur
La rigidité du scénario
Le jeu est gros en démat (5,58Go)

Lovely visuals and audio
Keeps you guessing throughout
Not as scary as expected


Rudimentary but functional investigative mechanics
Most of the games pay solid homage to the originals
Music and art gorgeously upgraded
Fully-voiced and well-delivered dialogue
Hints are uncontrolled and random
Very simplistic, full-on visual novel with little actual gameplay
The Girl Who Stands Behind seems better remade than The Missing Heir

Beautiful Visual Overhaul
Solid Soundtrack

A visually stunning view, making it a design model for future titles of the genre.
A highly mature, captivating story surrounded by equally interesting characters.
The exceptional location, which brings a part of the history and culture of Japanese video games to the West.
Players who are not familiar with the genre will have a hard time finding something that justifies the purchase.


A dark and captivating story
Detailed scenarios
Flawless performance
Japanese dubbing worthy of any anime
The menus often interrupt the plot.
He could have been more interactive
Without localization in Latin American Spanish


Gorgeously rendered, smoothly animated graphics
Investigation emulates slow-but-steady realistic investigation work
The differences between interview actions are a bit arbitrary
No "Pros & Cons" find for this reviewer.


The endearing characters
A scenario crafted like a good thriller
There could be some small variations in gameplay, such as mini-games, etc.

Some really well done moments
I think the new visuals are great, especially in motion
Genuine comedy that works
Options to use original soundtrack from FDS and SFC are nice
Great stories
No option to switch to original graphics
There are better visual novels


with a complex storyline. Localised into many languages for the first time.
seriously threatening to give up and quit at any moment. It is sustained by its story.


Lovely art-style and a strong line in oddballs and goofy locals
Easter eggs and silly comments aplenty
No effort to refine or modernise
No English voicework is a shame
No "Pros & Cons" find for this reviewer.
No "Pros & Cons" find for this reviewer.


A captivating story
A quality French translation
A good lifespan
An old-school visual novel
Lack of rhythm in the first chapters


Well-written and tactful story with heavy themes
The dubbing and backgrounds are also excellent.
Few opportunities for a "real" detective gameplay


A formula that has already proven itself
Effective writing
Successful artistic direction
Texts entirely in French
Requires little thought
A formula that is a little too simple
A too high rate (49.99?)

Nice VO and soundtrack
Vibrant, minimal animation
The detective gameplay and the core visual novel experience rarely gel
Not always a pleasure to control


Twists and turns that keep you guessing
Stories work well on their own but give extra info when both completed
Often makes you do things the long way which can get repetitive

Good modernization work
Not easy to predict the ending
Main plot is short and very weak excuse to replay
One plot hole big enough to drive an 18-wheeler through
