Iris is a reflection with a sarcastic streak, living in a mirror world that resembles ours but differs in small ways. Still Joking is a narrative adventure that blends visual novel and interactive fiction, following her as she investigates the death of the person she mirrors while working out where she belongs. The culprit is known early, so the investigation is about motive.
The story is long and text-heavy, with more than a thousand choices, roughly twelve to fifteen hours of reading and several endings for the main storylines and individual characters. Interactive points, quick-time events and investigation mechanics break up the reading, and a fully voiced cat adds personality. It suits readers of long, choice-driven mysteries.
