it IS entertaining enoug, but it short, and doesnt realy do much for the match 3 genre, youll get a couple of hours worth of entertainment, but get it on sale.

I was contemplating if to give this game thump up or thumb down. I really liked the Sin City theme story which was dark and interesting. Even though I am not a match-3 fan myself, the match-3 combat and abilities progress are pretty good. My only complaint is that the game is way too short... it actually feels like a chapter 1 of a complete game. At first I was very excited about the game, but at the end the experience is just way too short to be satisfying. Overall I still enjoyed the game, so I decided to give a positive review. If you want a short Sin City like experience, and/or if you love match-3 get it, otherwise pass.

Man, what can I write about this game? That having finished it I would pay 50 bucks and more for the 7-10 I spend playing, nay experiencing it? It is Bliss (no spoilers intended). It is an experience like no other. Perhaps only The Enemy Within comes close if you take the drama between Batman and Joker path and still this one is much more rugged and rough. Not really reccomended for the snowflakes however, this game is hard (not gameplay wise, thats easy) and it doesnt hold punches. I am just writing random thoughts now, which goes a long way to show the last ending really shocked me. It is like a very short novel. I wish there were 100 stories like this one.

Played on Steam Deck. I recommend this game, especially if you enjoy match 3 games. The story was decent. Multiple endings. Got all, but one. I had to YouTube the last one. I have a problem with the endings, but can’t go into detail without spoiling anything. Needless to say, my problem with the ending’s doesn't ruin the game for me. It’s somewhat challenging, but not too much and the story kept me going for the duration of this short, but worthy experience.

Gorgeous art style - very Sin City - with a fun combat mechanic and interesting story. I would have liked more story sections/options, but it does have 4 endings which are very different. Very enjoyable if a bit short.
