How it feels

You methodically interrogate suspects and piece together clues from two perspectives in a lush, noir-tinged circus setting.

What players say

Players praise the character writing and circus atmosphere, but many say the mystery is lightweight, the investigation serves as a framework for character stories rather than a puzzle to solve. Some find the action point system stressful at first and note the game is short (5-8 hours), leading to mixed feelings about the price.
