Pro (under 50 words) : Easily understood gameplay. The storyline and soundtrack felt familiar. Awesome fight system and the act system is really fun to explore. Character are well defined and relatable. Attention to detail in many aspect. Plot twist on many occasion. Variety of endings depending of player's action.
Con (under 50 words) ; I had to google to uncover all the different outcome and after my 3rd runthrough,i cave and just check the other outcome on youtube. Lots of hidden easter egg but it is impossible to found without 'determination'. Another issue is that this game should be available for phone.
