The Jig Is Up is an experience packed to the brim with stunning visuals, rich character-faithful storytelling, compelling intrigue, and a deep connection between narrative and gameplay elements that will undoubtedly leave you impressed. It was enjoyable from start to finish and the creators have crafted something truly special that feels right at home in the Lupin universe, even while grappling with themes that the source material prefers to avoid.

I played The Jig is Up despite my own lack of experience with Lupin media, fan fiction, and visual novels. It sparked in me a genuine interest in all three, and it's no stretch to say that it's a very real contender for my personal Game of the Year.
