How it feels

a cooperative point-and-click mystery where players unravel a short, story-rich whodunit set in a quirky Old West atmosphere

What players say

Players unanimously agree the cases are extremely short and easy, often solved by spotting a single dialogue contradiction. The co-op is described as unnecessary since it offers no unique mechanics. Most criticism targets the monetization: the base game contains only a tutorial and one case, with the rest sold as expensive DLC. Several reviewers report the game became unplayable in 2025.
