    推理玩法乏善可陈,剧本逻辑漏洞百出,结局更是完全无法自圆其说,虽然有精美的真人影像作为噱头,其内核完全是一款粗制滥造的作品。
    The gameplay is lacklustre, the logic of the script is flawed and the ending is completely unexplained, and although there are beautiful live action images as a gimmick, at its heart it is a shoddy production.

    The Centennial Case is one of the more ambitious FMV games in years, telling a century-spanning mystery while putting the player in charge of investigating several whodunits. Unfortunately, despite a solid production, there is very little to engage the player and the uneven acting performances fail to make up for it.

    The Centennial Case is an engaging FMV murder mystery with a unique vibe, thrilling confrontations, and a main protagonist who I’ll treasure because of her sincerity and undying determination to find the truth. I also felt much for Eiji, whose reserved (yet goofy) presence got me to care about his aspirations. Unfortunately, the lackluster characterizations of side characters and a corrupted save file due to the game’s instability on mobile mean that I can’t wholeheartedly recommend it.

    The Centennial Case: A Shijima Story is a massive FMV-game that tries to do way too much with its story, and in result loses its focus, especially compared to some smaller scale titles.
