999: 9 Hours, 9 Persons, 9 Doors


A VN where 9 people get kidnapped and shoved into a sinking ship in which they have 9 hours to figure out the mystery of the 9 doors.

Pro
+ Amazing story
+ Great Character development
+ good BGM

Con
- Text speed is so SLOOOOOOOOOOOW
- Tedious puzzles

The main attraction of this game is the story, so if you are looking into playing it for the puzzles, look else where. Most of the puzzles are basically and really easy, just it's tedious to find all the parts of the puzzle before you can actually start working on it. If you have read other works by Kotaro Uchikoshi (infinity series), then you can probably see the true end coming from a mile away, otherwise it's a nice surprise. Lastly this game is kinda open ended so that there are some details you need to figure out on your own. Not as open ended as Remember 11, but nowhere near as conclusive as Ever 17 either.

Playing Time: 20~ Hours (Safe + True End)

Overall Rating: 8.8/10
