An excellent noir game with a really good story. While I think that the art style and the gameplay will not suit everyone I still think that this game is worth checking out.

Addendum: 1/7/2021

So five years later and with no sequel in sight I feel like I have to say something. The Detail is really one of those games where you feel "This could've and should've been the next big thing." The story is dark, gritty and grounded. All the characters, even the minor ones, have depth to them and feel like they could be actual people instead of just being one-dimensional cardboard cutouts there to do one thing and one thing only (heck, it just hit me that this game is better at making characters feel believable than the Hollywood of today…) and like I said before: The art style is probably not everyone’s cup of tea but it I personally loved it because it felt distinct and made me think of the detective comics I read growing up.

In short, I love this game and it’s a damn shame we never got to see a sequel to it. Maybe one day, if we are lucky, we will get one but until then we are left with an awesome game with a really great story that will suck you in and not let you go until the credits have finished rolling.

This has been Reinbach, good night everybody.
