I've tried to get into this, but for a mobile game its just too slow. When I play on mobile it's because I want a 5 minute quick blast. The slow voice acting is quite annoying. Yes I could skip the scenes but they have key gameplay information so you feel forced to watch them. The gameplay itself is good and interesting, and keeps you on your toes.

I'm loving the Max Payne style of storytelling, but there are issues. First and most annoying one is a sound glitch. When connected to a bluetooth headset, the game loses sounds when screen goes black, which happen very often since you watch the game more than you play it. Fix this asap developers! Second thing is language. Hire a professional writer to fix that.

The idea of the game is cool but the execution is kind of whack. It's fun to be making constant decisions and it has a good management sim layout. But there's too much randomness where you get shafted really hard and can't really come back from it. Too much repetitiveness. Would rather have better gameplay than so many cut scenes. If you lose early and try to replay then you have to go through the exact same decision trees and then it's just a matter of memorization.
