85/100 If you like solving mistery this is definitly a game you should consider. Love it how you can solve things in many ways. The controlls are a bit clunky but that is not the main focus so I am good with it. There are multiple Endings so I would like to have more organized Saves so you can split from a certain point without searching under all the previous saves wich was the save I am looking for. Or you do the run from scratch. But these are the only complaint I have.
Good game

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Poland over the last 30 days: the 21 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 12 places towards #1, and the 2,501 moves with no price cut behind them went 1 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.

What a fantastic game! A real treat all way through, absolutely recommended
Para el que le gusten las aventuras gráficas, en las que tienes que hacer cosas muy concretas, en un orden concreto y elegir diálogos concretos. Una aventura gráfica donde, además, tienes que volver en el tiempo una y otra vez para rehacerlo todo es como el colmo de la meticulosidad, cosa que a mí me exaspera. No sé, yo para esto prefiero jugar a uno de esos juegos de IA en los que te ponen en una situación y ya vas creando una historia abierta y propia, mucho más interesante que este juego. Aunque me gustara este tipo de juegos, me ha parecido muy básico, personajes muy simples, diálogos muy limitados, a todos le preguntas lo mismo. Los objetos interactuables son muy pocos y tampoco es que sirvan de mucho, mas allá de las notas. Es como un cluedo con ambientación romana.
A truly excellent game. I played this when it fire came out and was excited when I realized I completely forgot everything about the main plot. Fired it up for a second play through and it did not disappoint. Absolutely perfect
this game is great!! there's a lot more to explore than you'd expect which was really fun to discover. the story is good, it feels very rewarding to speak to everyone and get as much info as possible. Every conversation felt useful and added to the experience. Would definitely recommend!
J'adore l'histoire et je suis main ekko sur lol, j'ai donc adoré ce jeu.
It's actually a good game; however, I was unable to unlock the third ending due to an error in the game's quest logic. I realized that this is a common issue that has been encountered by many players. I tried to resolve the issue using several different methods mentioned on the Steam Community forums and Reddit, but none of them worked. I initially thought that I was missing something and that I simply had to google “how to unlock the third ending,” which is sometthing I generally refrain from doing. I immediately lose interest to the games that force me to descend into the crypts of metagaming. [spoiler] If you reach the Upper Cistern by climbing the vines, you will never be able to tell Galerius that the Golden Rule is about to be broken, so he won't be able to gather the folks in the Upper Cistern and that's the first step for you to unlock the tthird ending. [/spoiler] Other than that, the dialogue, graphics, and gameplay were good.
A really excellent game. The atmosphere is top notch, and the voice acting is very good.
If you liked Outer Wilds and similar type games, this was very fun. A bit smaller in scale and playtime but very good overall
