What players say

Players describe Rewind as a very short, free murder mystery that takes one to two hours. The art style reminds many of Disco Elysium, but first-time players consistently struggle because there is no tutorial and the clue-combining mechanics are unintuitive. Reviews praise the concept while noting weak localization, a slow walking speed, and logical holes in the case.
