Skills are not only constantly being tested, passively and actively, but are characters in their own right who react to your choices, offer you their own advice, and argue among themselves, effectively a Player Party the detective carries around in their head at all times. The game's skill tree also stands out, focusing on the inner workings of your mind, your thoughts, feelings, opinions, memories, ideas, and beliefs, any of which may provide the key to getting through to a witness or suspect and eventually cracking the case. As always, the crime is never as simple as it seems, and how you go about the investigation, along with the mystery of who you are and what drove you to your current straits, are left up to the player - and the host of 24 inner voices, the pieces of your fragmented psyche, all vying for your attention: your character's skills.Īs the set-up may convey, the game places less emphasis on combat (there isn't even a dedicated combat system to speak of) and more on dialogue, finding clues, and exploring Martinaise and the coast. After waking up in Martinaise, an impoverished, Union-controlled harbour district about to explode in the wake of a lynching at the height of a two-month-long strike, the detective will try to solve the murder, stop the strike, and salvage what remains of his life and career - with the help of his temporary interdepartmental partner, Detective Lieutenant Kim Kitsuragi. The story unfolds in the fictional city of Revachol, in the island chain of Insulinde, and follows a disgraced, amnesiac detective in the Revachol Citizens' Militia after a three-day drunken bender which has completely obliterated all trace of his former life.
