the fact she uses OSHA laws in Japan, makes this ten times funnier, 10/10, also Gensokyo is sorta in Japan

I feel like I'm playing a round of Among Us as an impostor tbh

(It's very well-written and gameplay mechanics were nice, I just... have no idea how to describe how I feel about it?????)

I love grumpy Reimu. This is a fun take on that.

Reimu the NIMBY hates winter, but wait is this really made in a danmaku engine? is there a SHUMP in here?

Solid little adventure game!

As always, a polished work in the way of writing and game structure. The stamp of a good writer is here, that's for sure. It takes a lot of forethought in order to make this sort of game and create these kind of characters. 

Going for the Ace Attorney feel in just three days is a bold concept, and to a degree, it does work! But I cannot help but express frustration that there was no real explanation for how presenting evidence worked; it was unnecessarily opaque and a major roadblock to my enjoyment, as I was stuck for over half my time trying to figure out what I was doing wrong.

The game itself was also shockingly short compared to some of your other works, and I am still not sure how I feel in the end about the plot.

The gameplay is solid once you wrap your arms around it, and the writing is sound too. Looking forward to your future entries!

There's something about a 2hu applying Outside World logic and it's hilarious~
I like how straight-up calculating Reimu is in here. Not because of the ruthlessness of course, but because finding the way to progress is just damn satisfying - and progress never comes out of nowhere or from some obscure thing to do which is a full points for Challenge.

Seriously hilarious! Probably the hardest/most laughs per minute of any game I've played. Only complaint would be as others have said where one needs to use evidence mid-dialogue. Perhaps you could make the UI element glow when its applicable? I know that would counteract the whole idea of puzzle-solving, but the puzzles take a back seat to the writing as it is, so I feel that it'd only be an improvement.

Regardless, kudos on the writing and story. Definitely one of the best out there!

Nice game. As Kuang mentioned, there's a point where you get really stuck, but otherwise it was neat. Character dialogue was pretty funny and I liked it. 

Rolled my eyes a bit at the boomer reimu dialogue, I personally think you can do a grumpy old character without having to make references to touchy subjects. Detracted from the game a little but otherwise I enjoyed it.

Oh, this is a nice little game with an interesting story.

By the way, one thing that should be noticed is that some evidence should be shown "during the dialogue", otherwise you might be like me stuck for a while.

The overall atmosphere is good, and I am glad it has an online version now.

Somehow, being made the play the villain here hits harder than it should.

At least Yukari likes trains.
