“dropped it I never played to the moon or finding paradise, I approached this first since I assumed it would be a more interesting and grabbing point in the story given it was a time travelling murder mystery. I was…”
“This 2D pixel game has made me cry multiple times throughout the play through. The reveal near the end made me bawled my eyes out. In saying that, like all freebird games, it is more a walking simulator and not really a…”

“Definitely an improvement over the previous titles. They removed the puzzles allowing the story to be broken up less. Also the structure of the story is better here. However there's still the comic relief that…”
“You should buy it during sales! It's not that long and definitely can be finished in one sitting. I....have my own thoughts for the ending but overall, the story is good. I cried a lot haha”

“It is a really good game. At the beginning, I thought it was a horror game, with the whole mansion setting and people dying over and over again, so it felt really strange and a bit unsettling. But then I realized it is actually not about horror at all. The more I played, the…”
— a player, Steam review · 4 hrs played“This is a must-play, especially if you've been following the story. It's just as good as the previous entries in the series. However, even if you haven’t played the earlier games, I guess you can still enjoy it, you just might miss a few of those "aha" moments. The only thing I…”
— a player, Steam review · 3 hrs played“As part of the series, this was a wonderful story. But I can't really call it a game. This is a pure walking simulator that'll take 5-6 hours to complete. I can't really give this an enthusiastic recommendation, but it's more yes than no. If you want to discover the story behind…”
