After XCOM 2, I needed something a little lighter. Batman was a nice, light romp and this game worked too. I had bought this game a year or two ago when it was super cheap but never got around to trying it out until now.

Supernatural film noir murder mystery? What’s not to love? I really enjoyed the concept and mood of the game. It really had a bleak feel at times when you would encounter lost souls in your travels who wouldn’t understand that they were dead or couldn’t come to grips with their situation.

Nothing too difficult, it didn’t overstay its welcome and I enjoyed the clue system that moved the narrative along.

Gripes? It had a large collectible aspect to it, but I rarely had to work beyond my regular diligent searching to find just about everything. The lack of the world map meant that once I reached the end game and saw that I was missing about 10 items from my final collectible category, I opted not to continue the search. The stealth/action sequences were irritating at times but they were few and far between.

Solid adventure game.
