No Case Should Remain Unsolved
Critic Reviews for No Case Should Remain Unsolved
This is an ultimate text-adventure game where the player is left to deduct clues while puzzle solving through two different dimensions. The storytelling paths crossover between character perspective and timeline. The game attempts to become its own form of emotional storytelling medium just like the classic format of literature, which were mainly restricted to paperback novels. Since video games bring in the advantage of interactivity, the developers try their best to make the modern gaming form as immersive as books have become.

The presentation, the pixel art, the purposely sparse soundtrack and the compelling tale makes this a game that’s a step above the pulp nature of Bahnsen Knights, but certainly not the caliber of any Phoenix Wright adjacent games. You will be able to enjoy No Case Should Remain Unsolved and move on in a satisfied state of mind. You will not turn this into your new weekend obsession. But, like returning to The Devil in the White City, sometimes you’ll come back to see this tale through once more. After all, the details keep you locked in, and, at the end of the day, it’s always nice to see justice being served.
