    If you like Ace-Attorney-Style games you'll love this! This game has some of the best cases I've seen in the genre. It also has a lot of variation in mechanics and a couple of mini-games that fit the story well, and serve to keep the gameplay fresh. I also really liked the tie-ins into Chinese history, I feel like I've learned a lot. The bonus chapter not being localized is a huge bummer though. Nice-to-haves: +…

    I didn't love it. The game is very dialogue-heavy and the dialogue is rarely interesting. It adheres to a 'tell, don't show' philosophy. I enjoyed the puzzle/detective aspect but eventually gave up on it, just because the storytelling was quite a slog.
