“Murder Is Game Over: Murder Otaku is a fair and solvable mystery game that lives up to the golden-age standard that inspired it. Combined with its unique premise in a modern setting and RPG-style gameplay mechanics, it's an experience well worth the money spent.”
Mystery Gamedev Podcast

“Over the years, the Murder is Game Over series has grown to include new chapters, each one more intriguing than the last. It was very satisfying to solve the mystery and discover the culprit’s identity (even before Detective Guy’s explanation).”
85% – 1 Up Nerd

“Detective Guy and Cleo are a charming and captivating pair, and are fast becoming a well-established murder-mystery-solving team. Each of the games in the Murder is Game Over series seems to offer something new and be made with a little more finesse, with the narrative design becoming more intricate and enthralling. This new instalment is no exception. The developers’ hard work, dedication, and love for the characters and series shine through when playing all of the games, but perhaps become even more apparent with each new story.”
