Zero Escape: The Nonary Games

I cannot express how much I both enjoyed and despised this game in nearly equal parts. it's infuriating that I can't just hate on it for the misogyny

I do not like to play a list of little boring puzzles. It lasted less than 20 minutes before I realized that it was that.

I'd score both games separately as a 70, so that's the aggregate score this is getting. In general, the puzzle elements are inoffensive enough to keep you playing for the real meat in the story revelations. Virtue's Last Reward did get a bit repetitive at points retreading scenes for proper completion, while 999's main downside was probably the writing aspect of having characters randomly espouse scientific non sequitors that would be relevant down the line.
