This is one of the handful of games on The List! that I had played before, which is the reason it is a Pot 5 game. Even so, I was intrigued enough during my replay that I scratched at the surface more than I had previously and found 2 ways to die. I do not recall giving the game enough attention to discover death in my previous play.
The twist of discovering you are a thieving murderer is interesting, and on subsequent play-throughs it’s fun to find where your assumptions were taken advantage of by the author. On the other hand, we are two decades on from The Sixth Sense and the wave of mega twist movies that followed, so the effect is perhaps not as grand as it once had been.
