You’ll spend most of your time doing the hacking minigame. The information will then be added to that person’s data to be used later. The investigation part is the simplest one where you have to search for someone on the web, in which the game will automatically give you 1-3 results with a highlighted yellow text for you to click. The gameplay is mainly divided into three parts: making phone calls, investigating people’s tracks, and hacking locations for clues. Each character has a unique personality and the portrayal of the main characters’ emotions on the screen makes me sympathize with her even more. The writing has feelings into it, letting me absorbed into it as I played. While it doesn’t have a strong plot as a whole, the game makes it up with its dialogues. You need to use your previously gathered informations to get more information. There isn’t much to tell though – the ending is told similar to Orwell: Keeping an Eye On You ( our review), where you are presented with articles on what’s happening.
The only thing that matters is your choice in the last chapter, letting you choose between two endings. You might get different responses on certain chapters based on your previous choices, but even that has a hole in one of the options. It will treat previous events as if it never exists and switch the important characters that are not on the scene. Moreover, I didn’t recognize some characters that are mentioned even after playing the game a few times, so there is a chance that the game also mentions a name that doesn’t exist.Īs a game that focuses on story branching, your decision doesn’t affect much to the main story. As someone who grow up in a place where such things don’t matter, having someone being called with their first and last name, especially from the same person, makes me think that they refer to two different characters. Some characters can be confusing at first because of the first and last name basis. Moreover, the decision to use 3D models that look like 2D with their textures seems to pay off – it gives the game a unique look. The font choice also does a good job to make the text easier to read. Despite having a different interface from the usual operating system, the simple interface makes it easy to use – important features are gathered in one place not to overwhelm you with the amount of information. The world behind the monitor screen is where the action kicks in.
You’ll see what the character is doing, whether it’s just making a coffee to start the day or being emotional over what is happening. Since you are not doing much in real life, it doesn’t come as a surprise to see that it got a smaller portion, although it still shows what you need. As a game that takes more action on what is happening behind the monitor, the display is split into two parts, showing the real-life of our main character and the monitor screen.
