人物刻画很不错. 剧情高分推荐. 整个游玩过程中, 我比较烦躁选项的单一. 明明猜测的道具可以起到相同作用. 但就是只能使用唯一的解. 第六章最后的辩论才允许玩家有多重解. 解密上的整体感官有点像是先有的结局, 后根据结局定制的谜题. 有些生硬. 瑕不掩瑜吧. 作为解密游戏我给6分. 作为剧情游戏, 我给9分. 扣在致敬的有点多.
太好玩啦,尤其是最后的隐藏案件
神中神,快把dlc跟第二部端上来吧

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

全世界正数第一好玩
这个不错
画风非常喜欢
《山河旅探》真的给了我很大的惊喜。原本只是抱着试试看的心态入坑,结果一玩就停不下来。 游戏最吸引我的地方就是剧情和氛围感。案件之间环环相扣,推理过程不会太简单,也不会故意刁难玩家,线索安排很合理,抽丝剥茧的时候特别有成就感。民国时期的场景、人物服饰和配乐都很有代入感,像是在看一部可以亲自参与的悬疑电影,尤其是最后一段,很燃,燃到头皮发麻。 角色塑造也很出色,每个人都有自己的性格和故事,不是单纯为了推进剧情而存在。尤其是一些细节对话,能看出制作组真的下了功夫。 另外,美术风格非常舒服,国风与悬疑结合得恰到好处,很多场景都能让人停下来截图。整体流程节奏也不错,不会出现拖沓感。
国产佳作
各方面都挺不错,演出,节奏,我平时很少看推理类的作品,玩的过程中基本上也没怎么卡关,自动存档每次也是恰到好处,一次抱怨“怎么又要重来一遍”的心情都没有,剧情到最后也是燃起来了,我想起朋友推荐我玩的时候提的那句“我要洋人死”了哈哈哈。印象最深还是汉阳铁厂那里最后出现的沿用至今的国产铁轨就觉得真的先辈们太争气了啊……最后还是觉得心疼哥哥哎哎,虽然不擅长推理,但不知道为啥直觉很准,每次都能猜对凶手哈哈哈
Bought this game for less than ten euros on a sale, thought I might give it a chance. It turns out it might be one of the greatest gems the crime mystery visual novel genre has to offer. It wears its influences firmly on its sleeve; mechanically, it is a very close match to the Ace Attorney: Investigations duology, and Ace Attorney is listed as an influence by the authors of Murders on the Yangtze River. However, to me, this is a clear case of the student outclassing the master, with MotYR offering a tighter, more grounded narrative. AA often relies on the supernatural for its cases, and has a romanticized view of the role of truth in the court system. MotYR's overarching mystery is grounded to a real world injustice, and understands far better than AA the limitations of the court system to enact actual justice. Its historical setting between 1900 and 1912 is executed with care to detail and willingness to teach. The murder mysteries are constructed in a complex but believable manner. I was so hooked I took multiple breaks in between playing, already mourning that I had played through more than half the game. I hope the indie devs stick to their guns, because they demonstrated exceptional talent with this game.
