Hi!
I really liked the game, and I still do, even though in the end I found out the balance needs work (check out the remaining coins):
Still, I think it's really cool. The art, especially the cards, and the music, it creates such a great atmosphere. The voiceover too.
What I would work on:
- The main font is excellent, but there is also a more "cartoonish" one used (for some texts but also for the logo) which I think breaks the immersion.
- One bug: If I cancel playing a card (when being asked how many I want to play), all cards become unresponsive, End Turn too. Only "options" work, so I can leave, but the rest of the game is like frozen.
- The main menu could have smaller and more polished buttons. Also it felt a bit unresponsive (laggy) to me.
- The game balance, the power of Coin, the amount of RNG (compared to the amount of strategy/tactics), and the number (and complexity) of cards (in short: gameplay and content).
Improve those and you could have an
excellent game I think. The atmosphere is perfect, cracking suspects is fun... it just gets too repetitive and too easy and too short way too soon... but despite that I still feel an urge to go and crack another suspect. Already cracked like a twenty.
Damn, the music so great and the cards so cool that I just might go talk to one more... and give him a cigarette, even though he doesn't need one. I do though.
As a fan of card games, I really hope you keep working on this.
Good luck!
