I knew I would get obsessed with Cold Front, so I put off playing it for ages. I then played it, and became obsessed with it. Who could have foreseen this?

Putting jokes aside: I do have a lot of thoughts about the game, so I wanted to write them all down. This review contains spoilers!

My first criticism is that Augustine is a hockey player who is symbolically represented by a bear, and yet, he is a twig. Excuse me? That is a description of a character that should obviously be a beautiful fat man. Cowards. Pussies. (Although, thinking about the members of STUDIO INVESTIGRAVE's only fat OC and how he's drawn, Augustine probably wouldn't be drawn well if they did. OOPS who said that)
