A very unique game that tried something new, but did it work?

The Good
The interrogation gimmick is obviously front and center in this game. It works because I have nothing else like it to compare it with. The gameplay is well done, and side content doesn't feel like a chore. Sound design is of truly AAA quality. While the graphics isn't too bad, it could've been better.

The Bad
There are some scenarios that overstay its welcome, and some of the facial animations feel more about luck than deduction.

The Bottom Line
This is a truly unique game. While you might not like the gimmick, there aren't many games like this right now. And even if there is one, this one has a very well-written story to back it up.
