    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game's story is well written. Yama is an interesting and dynamic protagonist, and the way he interacts with the game's other characters feel natural, and humorous. The cliffhanger ending of Rui being killed felt sudden, and works well as the end of the first part, of a planned trilogy. The game does suffer from a few pacing issues, the main one being the theme park segment which lasts too long for my liking. Expand
