A cute, concise trilogy of detective adventure games that stick around for just as long as they need to. Looks and sounds quite nice, with a cute cast of characters. Combat is completely superfluous, with a lot more extraneous features to it than are ever utilized across the 2? enemy types and 5 different bosses thst might as well be sprite swaps (I imagine most of it is RPG Maker presets). However, the game largely treats combat as a contextual action and it never tangibly affects the pacing.
The trilogy is moreso three chapters of a short story. LiEat 1 & 2 follow the near-identical structure of exploring a small area over the course of several days, which works well for the small scope. 3 doesn’t really increase its scope, but swings for a different, more linear structure. While I preferred the structure of the first 2 overall, 3’s approach was still refreshing it fit well for concluding the trilogy.
The trilogy isn’t anything amazing, but as a small 3 hour experience for $3 (or free on the vgperson website!), I certainly have no complaints.
