This game was really nice and touching, (however the ending is a bit sad). I liked the murder mystery/investigation theme as well as the concept of the black swan behind it. Plus, I found it funny that the detective could accuse himself of the murder.
This story doesn't make any sense to me.
If the victim was a transexual, a girl who became a boy, then why would he keep acting as a girl if she wanted to become a boy??
His wife murdered him because he was acting as a girl, wearing dresses and make up.
But why??
I assume that if one wants to change gender, it is because he/she doesn't feel being the right gender.
So what is the point of changing gender and keeping acting as the previous gender?
In this case, why would the victim become a boy and keep acting as a girl??
That doesn't make any sense to me.
Can't wait to play this! Looks nice!
A short murder mystery visual novel about a detective, a yoga course attendant, a grieving wife, an obsessed cleaner, a “bro”, and a bitchy friend. To Kill A Black Swan is not your average whodunit, nothing is as it seems to be, it is all about superficiality (and beneath the surface it has an important message to tell.) TKABS was created for the 2014 Indie Game Development Contest and is available for free. The title is inspired by To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee, but it is an original story.
