It was fun, but could be frustrating when you could figure out the traits. It would be a lot better if you could go back and try again immediately and still solve the case even if you arrested the wrong person.

Reviews for "Welcome to Winkletown"
It gets a bit boring after a while, but I really love the style; the music; the sound effects (except perhaps for the typing one, which I think is a little too loud); and the overall idea. I particularly like how the game is randomly generated, from the crimes to the names, personalities and figurines. I also like their sentences once the trial is done (be it successful or not).
Something that is not actually a very bad thing, but felt sort of pointless is having several locations. I guess it was supposed to increase the difficulty by increasing the number of possible suspects, but it felt a bit artificial the way it was done.
Anyway, great game. Enjoy a solid 90% rating.
I've been looking to refind this game for ages, since finding it on Bart Bonte's website a while ago, I believe. An amazing game, cute graphics, and original concept. I love the way your art style is, it gives a familiar feeling (although that may just be because I've played this game before, haha) and makes you feel all comfortable and warm inside. And stuff. :D

Thanks, that means a lot!
I love the layout and the concept but I'm having a hell of a time trying to decipher what the clues mean... the pictures don't really look familiar in terms of what the characters look like. Sometimes the description contains things about the appearance that I don't see at all, and I understand that would make it TOO easy, but it's mostly guess work and not so much logic right now in my experience. Love the voice acting and the art, but I wish the connection between the descriptions, the clues, and the characters was a bit easier to follow.
