Shady sleuthing through a nasty alleyway, a messy apartment, and an abandoned message board, as you try to solve a strange murder that's been thrown on your lap. This is a neat little adventure game with an alluring, familiar artstyle, catchy soundtrack, and some sleazy writing.

The obvious parallel here is Snatcher, which is a game I like, but didn't love. It was a game that was a little too pulpy, which held me back from falling for it, and this is pretty much the same case for me, here. That said, I still enjoyed Digital Exorcist. I think it does a great job at setting atmosphere, and visually, it is an absolute treat for fans of pixel art.

It took me about thirty minutes to complete this game, and I'm gonna be honest; I think it was the perfect length. I'm not exactly sure if I'd want more of this, as it pretty much succeeds in what it is setting out to do. Regardless, this is definitely worth experiencing for fans of cyberpunk and adventure games. I'm sure any future projects in this universe will be just as good.
