    The game starts out nice enough, and the plot is actually pretty interesting. However, the writing gets worse as the story progresses. The part where Pilar has to overcome her fear was particularly annoying to me. There's also the overused trope of officials swooping in after the bad guy already escaped, only to arrest the protagonist for stupid reasons. Rating: ★★★☆☆
