What players think
The recurring themes across 188 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
I say this due to the fact that, while you're playing a piece of media, inputting commands and the sort like you would a standard video game, FMVs have a sense for both film and games that (when done well) blur the line for what's possible in a motion picture, having the player or viewer sort of take the helm of writer/director/producer in real-time as one experiences a narrative, twisting and turning depending on the choices made that also allows for a large sense of replayability and immersion that can truly feel one of a kind.

The soundtrack, by Yuki Hayashi- known for My Hero Academia among other things- is fantastic and really amps up dramatic moments in the story.
I’d recommend watching with Japanese voices and English subtitles.
While I'm praising the narrative, the performance of the actors, the props and the graphics in general, the gameplay (which is the only one) during the Deduction Phase feels a bit redundant.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
No themes split opinion in this sample.
No recurring complaints surfaced in this sample.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. One more theme was raised by fewer than 4 sampled reviews and is not shown.
