Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0/day in the week to Jul 21 → 0.2/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 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.

A great love-letter to the Ace Attorney series with a more serious twist and some rather innovative mechanics. The game loses some traction in the last chapter, as it is obvious that the author was under pressure to release it quickly. Nonetheless, the story remains cohesive and is a great read, with many recognizable patterns borrowed from German literature. A good story that recognizes its lineage and attempts to relive the better elements from Umineko with its own lore and context. Looking forward to the true ending arriving soon to put the final puzzle pieces in their proper place!
Gerd.

The first trial feels a lot like it was handing me the win on a silver platter while still being captivating and a challenge. It really makes you think of your options and learn to make them wisely if you don't want to run out of time. I like the game so far; the change in rules from trial 1 to trial 2 was a bit surprising for me and was an interesting choice though, I didn't expect it to change direction so quick. I haven't finished playing yet but from what I've played so far? I definitely recommend it. It reminds me a bit of Danganronpa in some ways while also being completely different in other ways but it has a similar concept of being trapped somewhere with presumably no escape. Main difference investigation wise is that you have more options to question characters with.
Lieb es und kanns nur empfehlen zu kaufen! 🤩 Endlich mal kein Open-World-Game sondern "nur" ein kleines Hotel - allerdings passiert in dessen vier Wände so viel das es definitiv nicht langweilig wird! Geh ich jetzt hier nach Hinweisen suchen oder dort? Meine Zeit reicht nichtmehr für alle Hinweise! Vielleicht ist hier noch was versteckt! Sag ich jetzt a oder b und was für Konsequenzen hat das ganze? ....Und warum soll Fall 3 jetzt so viel schwerer werden.....Oh! 😳😂 Das ganze wird abgerundet durch die sehr stimmig Musik, die liebevoll gestalteten (sehr unterschiedlichen) Charaktere und deren Storys! ♥️ Habe soeben das erste Mal das Spiel durch! Bin total begeistert von der Spielzeit und werde nun meine zweite Runde starten, denn zum einen möchte ich wissen was passiert wenn ich anstatt a , b sage und zum anderen habe ich trotz intensiver Suche nicht alle Sammelobjekte gefunden! 🧐
I absolutely LOVED this game! Played with friends and we had a blast doing everyone's voices. Loved the unique investigating and court room mechanics. If you like this sort of thing, you have to try playing this game! Also, can't wait for the Secret Ending to come out!
正直に言うとこのゲームを「おススメする・しない」の二元論で語る事は難しい。 まず第一に、そして最も大きな要因が、私はこのゲームの物語をあまり高く評価していない。[spoiler]ゲームプレイ中にプレイヤーが長く目にすることになる「帽子悪魔と角持ち悪魔の抗争」「主人公のラブロマンス」この二つが物語の軸にあまり絡んでいないのだ。前者は結局のところ飽くまでサンドマンに従属しない悪魔が居るという事でしかなく、後者は「大切なものを失う恐怖を司る悪魔のデスゲーム」で「ここで恋をするな」と言われた事からの展開として全く相応しくない。二章は正にその恋愛模様の天秤であったと言えるが、結局その相手とは特に何もなく自然消滅するのだ。こんなバカげた話も無い。更にこの二つを総括して、サンドマンに何もないのも面白くはない。彼が真の黒幕と呼べる立場にあるのに。更には様々な交渉の末とは言え、ドリームデーモンの脅威を最もよく知る筈の人間が彼らの協力者となって人間の潜在的な脅威になる、納得感が薄く、消化不良も甚だしい。[/spoiler] にも関わらず、この作品をおススメするに入れたのは、偏にこのゲームが所謂デスゲームの体を取っている為だ。 偽物の事件である、本当の意味で事件に遭遇していないからこそ出来る事というのをしっかり生かしていたストーリー(≠物語・人物模様)であったし、何より通常は絶対的支配者であるはずのゲームマスター、黒幕や首謀者と呼ばれる立ち位置の悪魔たちが、それぞれ自分勝手な思惑や利益で互いの足を引っ張ったり、参加者に利したりするのは本当に面白い話を生み出していた。そして彼ら自身のキャラクターを確立していた。 であるため、総合的には面白いゲームだったと評価する。 ちなみに翻訳はあまり褒められた出来ではないが、個人的には機械的で小慣れていない日本語というのは、原語のニュアンスを感じられるようであまり嫌いではない。 しかし発言者が明らかにおかしいのは翻訳以前の純粋なミスでしょうし、固有名詞の表記揺れというのはどうでしょう、許容すべきではないと思いませんか?全体的にほんの一部を除いては文の意味は汲み取れます。ほんの一部の例外が居る事も事実です。 また、これは単純に言語の壁なのかもしれませんが、質問文を作るのに「あなたは」を入れては作れない文章があったり、時節を付けないことで違う質問になったりするのはあまり気持ちのいいゲーム体験とは言い難いものです。
A great AA/Danganronpa inspired murder mystery that doesn't take itself too seriously and was a lot of fun. Writing and character development was really good for an indie game. Now that the final route has its true ending on the public beta, you can complete the whole story. Highly recommended if you're a fan of the aforementioned two series. Kudos to Wegi for all their work on this, it was an enjoyable ride!
Very intriguing game. Don't be discouraged at the beginning. It takes a bit to get going but then it picks up the pace and turns into an intriguing ride. I thin I am going to do a second run soon. There are so many things to miss on the first try...
An excellent puzzle-mystery game. Clear, strong inspirations from games such as the Ace Attorney Franchise, but handled in an interesting and captivating way. It is one of my favorite games of this genre. It is funny, and charming, and fascinating, and character-driven. Highly recommend.
Great game so far!!!!!
