What players say
Players praise the unusual mix of detective work and deckbuilder combat, calling it a consistent and fun blend of Clue and roguelike strategy. Randomized cases and time-limited investigations give each run variety. Some players report progress-wiping save bugs, and opinions split on the low-budget art and combat effects.
