In terms of murder mysteries, it doesn't get much better than Master Detective Archives: Rain Code Plus. The setting is fascinating, the story provocative, the characters full of personality, and the game world dripping (literally) in atmosphere. The only area where it stumbles is gameplay, which, unfortunately, is the most important area.

Master Detective Archives: RAIN CODE+ is phenomenal on the PS5. I tinkered with it on the PS Portal and having that portability with the raw power of this behemoth of a console made for a pleasure like I’ve never felt before. Moreover, this is Danganronpa, but with the various mechanics jumbled. The spirit of the trilogy is intact and it’s potent. You’d actually have to be blind not to see it. There are faults to it, of course, but nothing that derailed my session. I never felt like jumping ship.

Despite some frustrating issues in character development and the tedious, long and empty corridors that it hardly uses well, Master Detective Archives: RAIN CODE Plus is a high level adventure game. Its thrilling mysteries filled with twists are curious enough to be worth the investment, as is the rewarding feeling of agency during the labyrinth exploration.

If you have a hankering for some mystery-solving with a strange and fun cast of characters, cheeky puzzles, and light fan service, then Master Detective Archives: RAIN CODE Plus will deliver on all fronts. It looks better than ever and has less downtime while exploring Kanai Ward’s soaked and dank streets.
