Justice Is Denied!: This Is Out Of My League! – League of Light: Justice Review

Based on the completion of the demo only: Sorry, but this is not the level of gameplay that I expect to become enamored with after waiting ten days for a new and exciting release. The storyline is both predictable and absurd; however, I won't give it away. In my opinion, the overall production is inadequate. The cut-scenes are fuzzy. The scant background music does little to enhance the foreboding ambiance. Likewise, the occasional environmental sounds — namely, the startling torturous screams — seem inefficacious. Inventory usage is predictable and tedious — too many keys that open drawers, chests, etc. The teleport map, in custom mode, will transport you to labeled locations that indicate available actions. Furthermore, the map marks the locations in which you can discover a collectible. We are graced by a "back" button in both the HOSs and the locations to obviate unwarranted back and forth travel. The game is technically sound. Transition is speedy, and I did not encounter any glitches. During the free trial, there are enough HOSs and puzzles to determine that the gameplay lacks innovative qualities and reasonable challenge. The assorted HOSs are interactive, and they are creatively executed; I love those "Find and Use" fashions. However, they are devoid of trend-setting techniques. The puzzles present a dearth of challenge; they are mindlessly solvable and boring. The collectibles are well blended into the background; an indicator is located on the right side of the inventory bar. A positive aspect is that this developer affords us the rare opportunity to choose from several vocal options — including one to disable the voice — for the Protagonist. After sampling both the male and female options, I went with the omnipresent female voice. The voice of the male was downright bizarre — low-pitched, hasty, and jittery. The developers erred in the programming of the vocal options because the depiction of the male avatar that appears while your character is thinking is incompatible with the female voice, if chosen. Another interesting option is that you can choose to use a helper throughout the game — it does not affect gameplay or the storyline. I think that the total playtime of this game is going to be short-lived. Even with the steady back and forth, I still flew through each location, completing each task in breakneck speed. After the free trial, I was left unimpressed by the novice-leveled difficulty, as well as the mundane gameplay, and hence the inability of the free trial to persuade me to purchase the game.
