You wake up in a bathroom stall in a seedy Chicago bar with no idea of how you got here or, for that matter, who you are. You’ve dealt with the effects of benders before and this ain’t one of those. As you shake your head (hoping some memories might shake loose), you notice a ’38 hanging on the door. You check the chamber – six shells – three of them empty. That can’t be good. You gather your trench coat, stumble up the stairs and find some stiff slumped over a desk. There’s three bullets in the guy. Yeah, this is gonna be a bad day. The original Macintosh AND Apple IIgs versions are back, featuring gumshoe detective Ace Harding! Come see where the world of first-person adventures started and experience the classic 1940′s noir game as it appeared in 1985.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Saga RPG at Free against Deja Vu's $1.99. Saga RPG also leads on review sentiment (94% vs 50%) and rating (4.8 vs 3.8). Deja Vu's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 15.6). On in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
