You are a detective working a murder in a run-down city district, and almost everything about how you do it is up to you. Instead of fighting, you rely on conversation and a skill system in which your abilities speak up inside your head, arguing and pushing you toward different readings of a situation. You can question memorable characters, solve the case, accept bribes, or fall apart as a person.
The Final Cut edition adds full English voice acting, new political vision quests, an extra area and more citizens to meet. Text-heavy and strictly single-player, it suits players who want a role-playing game driven by writing and choice rather than combat.
