A glooming peace this morning with it brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.

If you like point and click adventure games, it was good. If you didn't, it wasn't. Simple as that. Pure niche, pure old school, pure hardcore.

Pure quirky too. Touch Detective is a game that is admittedly flawed (though they say they're fixing some of those in the sequels), so your love for point-and-clicks had to overcome the first game's shortcomings.

I'm all over this one, just like the original...If you love a straight-forward point-'n-click with hilarious dialogue, don't miss out...

Something tells me Bill will have this game beat before I even buy it. And I'm buying it this week!
