Dressed up substanceless trash. As thin as its cardboard-cutout characters. Interesting ideas though

有跑图有探险有收集有推理，还要什么！爱真相小姐我要做你的狗——

of the mystery games i have played, Paradise Killer really stands out because of how it treats the solving (the trial, in this case). technically, there IS a correct solution to the case, and it isn't that hard to find out if you get enough evidence,, HOWEVER, at the last moment you have the option to present evidence the way that you understand it, or just present a half truth/made up story you crafted to protect some people and condemn others (given you gathered the correct pieces to the puzzle). so it is weird! you can't really "fail" the case in the end, so the game is not hard, per sé, but it also DOES NOT HOLD YOUR HAND, which is great, it doesn't force some clues nor tells you what to do.

the main focus is really the exploration, which gets more enjoyable once you get some upgrades , the world is pretty interesting to learn about, both through the environment and conversation (which has some HILARIOUS moments). if you like what your read, i do recommend!
