In an obscure corner of the city, a single bullet takes your life, but that’s not all it takes. When you awaken as a spirit, you realize you have no recollection of who you are. Thus begins your search for the answers to these questions: “Who am I?”, “Who killed me?”, and “Why was I killed?”
One night is all you have to answer these questions before your soul vanishes at dawn’s first light, and your only lead is the female detective who witnessed your death...

Still my favourite puzzle thriller on IOS
Phrophetsam
I’d never felt urgency, empathy, and actual investment because of an Iphone game before this one. The characters are greatly well-written and he mystery actually surprises you in ways you didn’t expect. The touch controls are intuitive and ultimately makes the game a great one. Perhaps the best moment in the game is one where you’re rushing to complete the puzzle or to move your character faster. The reason you rush is because you know a character you like is going to die or fall into a trap or something of the sort. I’ve never felt that way about characters in an Iphone game before. But of course this was originally released on DS.
Could be good, but insufferably bloated

I was intrigued, but every time you actually get to take some action, you then have to go through five minutes of the lamp telling you what you should do next, and explaining the situation in an extremely verbose manner. Then, when you finally get to make your next move, it is all over again five more minutes of incessant dialogue, tapping continue continue continue dozens of times. This game could be beautiful, if only it weren’t 90% being told what you need to do and how to do it.
Short And to The Point

The dialogue is way too long The tutorial is also too long There’s no skip button to skip the dialogue and tutorial Other than that it’s all right
Not my cup of tea...

The game is well written, has good graphics and a fun storyline but I just couldn’t get into it. I usually love games of “this type” but in all actuality, this game is in a category of its own. It has a weird concept that just didn’t pique my curiosity and give me that wonder and intrigue to wanna keep playing. But all because it’s not my kind of game doesn’t mean it deserves a bad rating. Maybe I’ll give it another try one day... but if you are looking for an odd adventure game with a good storyline, give it a whirl.
My favorite game among all.

It’s been many years and I still want to play the 3rd time! Please have new season or new game like this!
Not sure if game or ebook

The balance between reading and gameplay is way off for my tastes. I’m not sure if its just a painfully long intro or the whole game is like a book but it’s beyond frustrating and boring for an alleged puzzle game.
Retro style

Game flow, sound/music, & dialogue has a Super Nintendo game vibe—almost RPG in nature in how you can examine lots of objects & talk to lots of characters—-a game style I really enjoy. If you don’t like lots of plot, character development & detail, then you will not like this game. The puzzles are delightful, wether easy or hard, they are pretty intuitive if you’re right brained & creatively minded. I had no real major difficulty with any; it was just hard enough to be fun. Very clever game structure, plot, unique non-cookie cutter characters—good enough to be made into a comic or cute show. They just don’t make unique games like this like they used to—really worth every penny. Hope they make more!
Best game ever!

This game is worth every penny you pay, it is fun, challenging, and has an unusual plot I have never seen before which is awesome because that is what makes it different from any other game. I recommend this to everyone who wants a game to love. AMAZING!!!!!
A real classic

I honestly wish there were more games like this on IOS. Great story and the way it’s told, just fenomenal. The gameplay is fun and unique and full of interesting characters with many eccentricities. This is what I call a full fledge well developed game. Fully recommend it.
