Beautiful and Fun!
This game is really fun; it has a lot of depth to it. Not to mention, I love the developer. It's rather short, but they compensated by making it cost less. it has a good amount of replayability to make up for that as well. Also, despite the cost, it looks beautiful and realistic, just like Until Dawn. We've had a lot of fun playing this with a small gathering of friends.I would highly recommend this game.

Great Concept but poor design
The game is pretty fun. It reminds me of the Choose Your Adventure books from long ago. You can play with multiple people who all choose that direction of the game. I hate the PlayLink part of the game. I wish you could opt to use remote if playing solo or only 2 players. With PlayLink, you have to connect your phone via internet to the game. You use your phone to control the game rather than a controller. It’s all fine until you have issues with app crashes or random disconnections. The first time through game, we had no issues. The 2nd time, it kept disconnecting. Frustrating to say the least. Overall, it’s a really fun game when it works but the issues with app sometimes overrides the experience of the game.

Fun, intense, with only a few problems
The game is super fun to play with great friends! We had a blast and were immersed in the story. Personally for us, we were able to solve it pretty quickly because we loooove to watch crime shows so it was slightly predictable, but the journey overall was still fun and thrilling. We only played in Story Mode so far so I can't say how much more fun Competitive Mode is. Based on how it played out in Story Mode (which is where you and your friends work together), I can imagine Competitive Mode being just as fun if you like being competitive and playfully sneaky with friends.I've seen some people complain about not being able to use the controller, but I think it's perfectly fine and much better & easier having it on the phone. You're not moving any characters. At most you are just moving a cursor to click/hover over boxes that either choose an answer, complete a quick time event, or find a clue. Having it on the, imo, is also better because you look at plot, biographies, and ripple events on your phone which is much more convenient than having to look at it on a TV screen. So if there's a part going on that isn't quite important to pay attention to, you can just read what's in your phone as the game continues progressing.My only gripe with the game, as I'm sure many others have pointed out, are the connectivity issues with the game. Some of my friends' phone's connection to the game disconnected randomly a few times during game play (thankfully not during critical moments) and one of my friends said that the game chose the opposite answer she wanted when she was the person in charge of the solo choice.Personally from my experience so far, connectivity was not an issue to the point of it being unbearable. Just only a slight annoyance. Even though the game had some connectivity problems, I would still recommend getting the game if you and your friends love murder crime mysteries and party games.

Great Story Line
This is a great game, especially for the price. I really enjoy the story line and also like that I was able to play with more than on player. Don't get scared by the price of this game, the format is great and I know that you will enjoy it. The only thing that I would say about this game is that you can't use a Game controller to play and actually requires for to play using a smartphone or table/ipad device, so if youll be comformable playing the game this way. I would definitely recommend for purchaing tthis game can be great for a family game night

Two stars until they fix their broken game
We spent 30 minutes trouble-shooting the Wi-Fi connection because some Android phones can't successfully connect the app to the game. 3 of 4 of us had no issues, but one friend couldn't connect. We finally fixed this by connecting to hotspot mode, but we all had to turn data off on in our phones to connect.Then we started playing... The competitive mode concept completely fails. It gives a "hidden agenda" to one player, but the game always announces which choice pairing is the one that somebody had a hidden agenda for. To make things worse, you vote on who has the agenda BEFORE they even make a choice which leads to two problems. One, there is nothing to base your accusation on. Two, the person with the agenda can use their "takeover" skill to ensure that their choice wins...all so that we can earn points because...why? Why do I care about points? The concept for this game was so good, but they executed nearly everything wrong.All of that said, the PlayStation game itself crashed and when we booted the game back up and resumed our save, it crashed in the same place. We tried a third time and it crashed again in the same place, so we have to give up until they fix their game with a patch. We literally cannot proceed any further without starting a new game. $20 seemed too good to be true until I realized I purchased broken garbage.

Buyer beware
You can not use your ps4 controller to play this game. You are required to use a phone or tablet or something to play this. I wasnt able to get any of my devices to work with this (yes i downloaded the hidden agenda app to my phone and ipad) My one star review is based off the fact i can not play this game. If it says anywhere in the description you cant use your controller to play this game then that is my fault for not seeing it. I didnt notice it tho so thats why i bought it. If anyone can explain to me how to get this to work I will change my review accordingly. I really liked until dawn and assumed this would be more of the same. I have never heard of playlink prior to getting this in the mail. Again my bad for not researching more.

Great game for crime movie lovers.
Fun game for the wife and me to play, I like how they integrate the use of your phone to play. It is like watching a movie, I was actually having dreams about this game after playing and had to remind myself that it was a game and not real movie. Graphics are ok, but story gets better as time goes on.
