Review

The story follows Sofia, who recently married Baron Von Wolf. The Baron has disappeared out of the blue, and when he returns to his home, Sofia finds that the returned Baron is an imposter. This starts a game of cat and mouse where Sofia is pitted against the returned Baron, with a detective assigned to the case by the authorities caught in the middle.

The game is very short (less than one hour long) and there isn’t really any gameplay other than clicking through and reading the story. The plot is surprisingly unpredictable and, other than some questionable subplots, is actually pretty good. The art is ok and the localization is a tad awkward at bits but nowhere as terrible as Rain City.

Conclusion

Very short story with an intriguing premise.
