Make no mistake, romance is the focus of this detective supernatural mystery. The overall plot feels like something you'd see on a CW show. But the characters are charming, the world is interesting enough and there's plenty to choose in this CYOA story.

I liked the game and story but the 440k words is very misleading. I'm guessing it's a combined count for all routes and choices, but it only took me about 4 hours to complete which I'm guessing means I read about 30k words? I was expecting to be able to take more time reading the story. I'd be interested in looking into other routes but I wished this was longer!

I enjoyed the game and am already on book three! This is concerning given that I started playing only four days ago. I am already thinking about what to do in another playthrough, and ahhhh yes, a big can of brainworms has been opened with this one. Anyways, I warmly recommend this game.

I am free to create my own character and make choices. I have never been so happy to play / read a game like this. I have been playing it since 2021.
