Reviews
红色七月真的很值得他人仰慕,看作孤狼冷酷实则良善,btw居然没有历史回顾
还好有这个免费版,难玩死了,看宣传差点就冲两部正作了,果断取关
垃圾游戏,不知所云。 角色毫无美感,视觉小说的人物观感是很重要的。 作为一个侦探故事,主角居然不用逻辑断案,用作者开的金手指臆想断案,而且五章结束案子都没解开,主角跑去参加游戏了,你在逗我吗,作者。

超短的视觉小说!看到结局的时候一直在想,或许红色七月的答案不一定是正确的呢?毕竟那样概率极低的方法对于一个要做到完美表演性质的谋杀者来说实在太不稳定了(
免费的所以不给差评,剧情和画面都有些莫名其妙
没用的助手,我随便拨拉一下答案对了我还寻思这前言不搭后语的怎么可能对,没用的助手 好慷慨大方的红色七月,五万的支票哎,打工时间肯定也不长都没来得及亲密起来
