    Process of Elimination is 80% visual novel. The gameplay sections are fun and breezy, just not explained well. The story has a strong message and narrative hook. Not mind blowing, but the twists are cool. And despite a short runtime, the characters are developed and likable.

    Great Visual Novel game. If you like danganronpa you'll probably enjoy this. The investigation parts felt unique and different than other visual novels and I loved the story and Characters. Only real downside was that there's no English voice acting but obviously wasn't a deal breaker for me

    Process of Elimination was full of surprises in more ways than one. Its twists and turns make for a great murder mystery that visual novel fans will want to sink their teeth into, but the comically brief tutorial of the investigative segments may lock players out of the entire experience. If you’re twiddling your thumbs waiting for another Danganronpa title and have 10 – 15 hours to kill, Process of Elimination issues this challenge: don’t get eliminated.

    Process of Elimination is a fun visual novel in which you must solve a murder mystery on an island of super-detectives. Actual gameplay is light, but the bonkers story, mini-games, and detective puzzles make this a mystery worth solving.

    Process of Elimination tries something new with its unusual mystery-solving mechanics, and I appreciate that even if I don’t think it really came together as well as I’d hoped it would. The story is really good even if it can be predictable at times, mostly thanks to its interesting cast of characters. Indeed, I sometimes found myself wishing it was more of a straightforward adventure game as the strategy segments sometimes work against the flow of the story. Still, there’s a lot here to like for fans of high-stakes whodunnits.
