What players say
Players praise the pixel art and historical Leipzig setting, but split on the story: the first three cases are fun, while the fourth case frustrates many with a difficulty spike and a narrative twist that undermines earlier cases. Some also note the lack of autosave and occasional illogical puzzles.
