Worth the time.

I enjoyed this game very much. Took me awhile, though.
(5/10) Gameplay: There isn't just an overabundance of gameplay. It's not a super long game, but it takes time, as there's a lot of reading. It's rather like playing a graphic novel with a few puzzles in between chapters. I didn't find most of the puzzle levels to be very difficult. If you were left on your own to play them, it would probably get old quickly. Fortunately, the story and characters make up for that, which leads me to...
(9/10) Story: The story may take a little while to get going, I know I wasn't digging it during the first 15 minutes or so, but after the first little hurdle, things start getting interesting quickly. There are six endings, do yourself a favor and play them all. After your first ending you'll be doing a lot of fast forwarding, but the extra plot you uncover across the various endings is very fun. Lemme tell you, the last ending is AWESOME.
The characters a great, and each one seems to become more endearing as you play through all the endings, as you learn things about them that you hadn't known in the ending before.
Overall, it's definitely worth a look. Not for everyone, but definitely for those who like a good story.
