我于万物之中

As this is a commercial boxed game, many Chinese reviews exist; you might want to check them out too.

Played at: 忆南馆
6 players (2 female, 4 male)

This was an SCP case (like 《收容失效》) with everything that implies: a focus on paranormal phenomena, redacted info, and a need for some creative leaps. If all that sounds cool, or at least tolerable, then you might find《我于万物之中》to be an enjoyable ride.

Above all, this case just felt fun. The character relations were entertaining to discover, the inclusion of physical props was a nice touch, and there were some genuinely funny twists.

At the same time, the central case itself is substantial and complex. Some characters also get stories with deeper emotional resonance.

The need for creative leaps is particularly pronounced in the endgame, which some players might dislike. It didn’t disrupt most of the case-solving, though, so I wasn’t too bothered.

I’d recommend this as a fun yet substantial experience for any group that doesn’t mind 变格 cases.

Try if you like: SCP or paranormal themes; intuitive leaps; amusing touches.

Not recommended for: Players who dislike supernatural aspects; players who dislike having to make imaginative leaps.
