What players say

Players praise the faithful adaptation of Maurice Leblanc's stories and the top-notch voice acting, but many criticize the mind map puzzles as unintuitive or poorly implemented. The game is described as short, around 7-8 hours, and expensive for its length, with gameplay that gets repetitive. A notable design flaw: starting a new game overwrites the only save file without confirmation.
