User Reviews
Vero love...
I played both staffer case and retro, and I enjoyed both games
I think the character writing and the plot is better in retro
But the deduction process is more enjoyable in staffer case
All in all still an enjoyable experience
I love chapter 3 a lot it’s really well done
the art is also pretty lovely
9/10 would recommend this game
我玩過前作
覺得Staffer retro 的故事劇情和人物描寫做得更好了
不過推理方面我比較喜歡前作
整體來說還是很好玩的
由其第三章 真的寫的很好
挺推介的
As always, quality writing and great presentation from Team Tetrapod.
Act 3 was the best Case I've got to experience so far from them, they really outdid themselves.
I wish Act 5 and the epilogue had the more open investigation structure that we came to expect from the rest of the series, it can't help but feel rushed and impolished compared to the tightly paced first parts of the game.
Still, a fantastic experience overall and i'm looking forward to their next project.
I love the staffer case series but i have a big question so far (still playing chapter 1) spoiler: ok so Verita took on the job to repay her father's debt. she was spared from being forced to work because she was barely an age finish school. what about her sister though. at first i thought she was a ghost that only she can see lol for sure vassanio can make vero work?? (edit: now I'm at the end of chapter 1 and my guess seems to be the truth!)
This is the 4th game in the staffer series I've played, and it's genuinely amazing. The plot twist was mind-blowing too, I didn't see that coming at all. Can't wait for Notrick and Thene to return in the next game!
