Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
The Silver Case is a great debut from Goichi Suda featuring a hard-boiled detective story, which also somewhat an unpolished experience with too many ideas which didn't exactly follow through with interesting conclusions.

Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
However, to give credit when credit is due, the only redeeming factor about this game has to be the noir-esque art style.
