Real great game, its thing is definitely inspired by Danganronpa, if the refute animation isn't obvious enough. It is quite different though, if it helps, compare it to the argument armament part instead of bullet time battle. Its immediate suspect then short investigation before weird psychic mental argument thing, and the main part of the game: Bullet hell! I may be too confident and suffered deeply due to setting the lives to 2, but 5 is definitely enough, especially since it resets for every argument. By this point I should probably talk about it too, you are to cycle through 3 statements while it shoots bullets at you, and bomb the bad statement. Little complains about it: Its definitely way too easy to guess which statement is correct, bombing the wrong statement does not punish you at all, and the wrong statements are so obvious as they're literally just filler, almost none of them were red herrings. Point being, the gameplay boils down to shoot until statement three, sometimes shorter, sometimes you immediately win on statement 1, not like I can blame them, too much statement and bullet hell needs to be toned down, and I guess bullet hell was chosen over the mystery which was done well. And then the little segment of other things, story is good, music especially on the bullet hell segments were fire, and the artstyle can be seen as the kind that try and fail to replicate the anime style, enjoyed all the reveals and twists. Were they predictable? yes, did I get an uh oh moment when the bad guy slips up? yes, pretty fun. Will I recommend this to someone looking for danganronpa fangames? nah. I'm sure they're looking for a more mystery heavy one, but if they're just looking for games and happens to be a fan of mysteries and or bullet hells then yes.

Free mystery. Thankfully it doesn't punish you for failing too much.. I think
The game can be completed now at least. Before the update, the game can't even be finished with it crashing on the final boss fight. Other than that, many people doesn't even know save button existed in the game because there's not a single mention of it. Now that it's fixed and autosave existed, I hereby can say that it's a short bullet hell game with fine story and gameplay
Really nice demo, the combination of bullet hell and detective gameplay works great! My only complaint is that there's no penalty to pressing on incorrect statements so you can just press on everything. Had a great time, excited for the full game!
Detectives, magical girls, bullet hell, and a cat named Snowy...I love it. Please keep making fun and charming games at Will-o-Works! You guys are doing great!
just realized that it is easier for me to review civil procedure than it is to go through ONE practice round of bullet hell. still fun though
An entertaining game, with a cute art style! Would suggest for people who like Mystery/Detective games and Bullet Hell games!
Great game for a quick play, its free and cute! I had a few crashes when I played it but other then that its good!! I would love of the devs made a longer game because the way they write characters and stories is so charming
Absolutely delightful and a ton of fun. I am so so bad at bullet hell games but this was just a really fun way to spend a couple hours. 1000% recommend!!
Difficult mystery and bullet hell with a well paced story.
