Although the first entry to the series is relatively short - more like a prologue to a much bigger story - it still has a lot of intrigue to entice you into sticking around to see what unfolds in future games. You play as an unnamed male main character who is in the wrong place at the wrong time, and immediately thrown under suspicion in a murder investigation at a cafe. A local off duty detective giving you permission to ask some (mostly) harmless questions to help piece together what happened may seem unrealistic to some in this game, but rest assured, future installments explain why this detective in particular was so willing to trust a teenager unwilling to give up his real name. Although the mystery in this visual novel is technically revolving around a murder, the real mystery is who you're playing, why he has this ability, and who the mysterious voice is that appears in his head and how they know what's happening inside the locked down cafe. Unfortunately, you'll only get some of the answers by the end, because some questions are linked to a much bigger picture that unfolds throughout the series. Each game gives you another piece of the puzzle, but it's never frustrating because each revelation feels like something huge and exciting. Because of this, I'd really recommend purchasing all three games that are currently released so you can immediately move on to the next game when you finish this one. It's also extremely important to replay the game to get all of the endings, because this will unlock each of the games' epilogues which are part of the true ending. Playing all three games also gives you a better idea of the developing relationship between each of these characters, as the series really gives you a "found family" kind of vibe, as the murder investigation in this game brings together a team of misfits that will work together on solving future mysteries that are in some way related to their mysterious pasts. As for JISEI itself, the game on its own is definitely worth buying to check out. The game gives you a bit of nonlinear freedom, as you can choose who you want to talk to and when, as well as getting to choose to examine the room that you're in to learn more about what's going on. This was a huge selling point for me when I first played, because it reminded me a bit of the point-and-click mystery games I played as a kid. In this game, clicking examine will just give you a narration of what your MC observes for you, but in future installments this feature is upgraded to the player having to click around on various items in the room before you can learn more about them. You may also recognize the art style as being the same as the Flower Shop series (Summer in Fairbrook, Winter in Fairbrook) as well as C14 Dating and the free visual novel Autumn's Journey. Deji's art is particularly lovely in this game, though, with Li Mei and Gurski's designs remaining my favourite. You may also recognize the voice of Li Mei, who is voiced by Cherami Leigh. This was one of the first things I noticed, because I recognized her as the same person who did the voice of Mai in the Ghost Hunt anime dub, which is another series I have a soft spot for. All of the voicing in this game is fantastic though, and really brings the characters to life with the added depth and emotion. If you're the type to turn off the voice acting, I don't think that'll be an issue here - but if for some reason one of the characters has a voice you just don't want to listen to, you can turn it off for them individually and still enjoy listening to the rest. All in all, I couldn't recommend this game enough, and I was very excited to see it had finally gotten released on STEAM. I've played and replayed this game several times, and I always enjoy it as much as the first time (though it helps if you wait a few months and forget some of the big reveals like I did). The team is also working on the fourth installment, and with each game improving on the last, I personally can't wait to see what else is in store. Seriously, BUY THIS GAME.
