The game feels fun, noir-y, but it has a number of bugs that forced me back to the in-game hints too often. (And even those have bugs, at least as of Release 1.)
I posted a big list of bugs on the intfiction forum. https://intfiction.org/t/the-big-fall-a-1947-detective-story/51435/5?u=dfabulich
My biggest issue with this game is plot-related.
(Spoiler - click to show)Why did Dixie (the mob boss) let Sylvia live? Why are the cops trying to kill me in the final scene? Shouldn't they just arrest me?
It seems like the game is being noir-y at the expense of its own plot.
I think if the bugs were fixed, this could be at least three stars, and if the plot issues are addressed, it could be four or five stars.
