What players say
96% of 11,413 reviews are positive · 95% of 234 in the last 30 days
Players most often praise the central mystery, social-deduction debates, character writing, and Revelation Mode's added perspectives. The most common complaint is that the final routes and ending do not resolve the mystery satisfyingly; some also find the late exposition excessive and the branching more linear than expected.
