I'm wondering if anyone of you has already played this game? It is my personal favorite of 2008, but unfortunately it did not get a lot of attention. It is a mixture between board game, card game and adventure and it took me at least fifteen hours to finish it, though without being bored.

I actually just heard about this game earlier today. COINCIDENCE!! What's it about? Need more details please!! What's the game play exactly? Fast paced? Slow? Help!!
It cant be compared with any else game currently available. It's just awesome and legendary. Okay, I dont want to exaggerate. It contains a lot of dialogue, but I assume it could be exactly your humor. The setting is a rather conservative city in the US called Brigition, in the 1920's (if I remember right). And the adults of this town have a loooooot of secrets, some funny, some terrifying, some just incredible.
In the beginning of the game you choose a girl who is supposed to be the queen of your gang...later on you will recruit three more girls that will complete your gang. Every girl has different strengths flaws in her skills. The skills again are important for the four mini-games (all card-games, but very creative, unique and funny) called taunting, fibbing, gambit and Exposing.
The girls also can flirt with boys at the school or in town. (also a kind of mini-game) If their flirt is successfull, the girl flirting has a boyfriend from then on, who will boost one of her skills and sacrifice himself if she is in danger (because the dean of the school is angry for example, because your girls broke into his office at night, rofl) - rather romantic, isn't it.
Anyway, the game is hard to describe, as it is rather unique. The graphics as well as the music are very retro, according to the setting, so the atmosphere is just amazing.
