    Honestly, this is what happens when Suda51 takes The Silver Case's setting and goes full political fiction.

    It's an over-the-top, but very intelligent take on a very strict society full of rules, trying to create an utopia.

    It's one of my favorite VNs. Anyone interested in Suda's Kill The Past series, political fiction and such should take a look!    … Expand

    Amazing introduction for the KTP World and Suda's mind. If you want a nice storytelling and know what's Suda51 is, this is the starting point.

    Insane. In the most literal sense of the word.
    But not in a generic way, not in a pretentious way, but real, palpable.
    it's a bottomless pit of madness.

    Not everyone will appreciate it. But playing with an open mind after The Silver Case and Flower, Sun and Rain, the experience with this game will become amazing.

    Kill the Past is a franchise that deserves attention.

    The sequel of the already fantastic Silver Case delivers even more with an even more cryptic story, but an even more flawless execution. This is the pinnacle of style by Suda51.

    The sequel to The Silver Case delivers even more with an insane story but incredible presentation and style. You will end up knowing less than you already know, but will also end up going through another satisfying adventure full of meaning

    Goichi Suda and Grasshopper studios are back with a weird and original adventure. The atmosphere is concrete in The 25th Ward, in an enjoyable way. The problem is that this is a more a visual novel that a videogame, and we are more spectators than players. However, the originality of the plot and the style, makes the game worth it for those non-mainstream players.
