What players say
Players praise the polished visuals and noir robot world, but nearly all say the game is short at around 2 hours with only 4 cases. Many compare it favorably to I Expect You To Die but find it more hand-holding. Controls are teleport-only and often described as overly sensitive on the trackpad.
