This is a game about solving a crime which focus on exploration, unlocking new movement mechanics, and dialogue with an interesting cast.

The problem is that Paradise Killer is also a game about that which is more confident in its delivery, with a stronger cast, more interesting exploration, better usage of movement mechanics, and a case which does a better job of tying the whole cast into it. It also doesn't delve into the subpar combat that this game has for some reason decided it must tack on.

Yet I'd still recommend Forgotten City because it's a good game and hopefully representative of a growing genre, one you previously only really found served through visual novels. It's just that if you have to pick just one game I'd pick Paradise Killer in a heartbeat.
