Oct. 2024

A truly solid game, filled to the brim with creative ambition. The story imagines a sci fi world that is truly original, even weird for weirdness' sake (though that is right up my alley!) This game is a dialogue-heavy, puzzle-light adventure game that is well worth the asking price as a narrative experience.

In this isometric adventure (which to me feels like a walking simulator) you'll traverse post-apocalyptic Africa, encountering bizarre creatures, solving intricate puzzles, and making decisions that shape the fate of the world. It's like a scenic hike with a side of existential crisis - perfect for those who prefer their exploration with a hefty dose of narrative depth. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3286774544 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3282767634

Fantastic! One of, if not THE most unique and entertaining games I've played in a few years. Gorgeous end to end, excellent audio design, wonderful companions, and a new spin on traditional adventure mechanics. The closest game I could say it's related to is Planescape: Torment, and that is also intended as an extreme compliment. I'm not sure what the complaints are about the game loop, it's very traditional for adventure games to have you searching for items and trying combinations of things. I feel like the negative reviews aren't fair, due to the game explicitly stating it's genre. Have you guys never played an adventure game before? At no point have I ever felt stuck, or that I was going out of my way to search for things. There are clues in the story, and there are visual clues on the maps. Look for pulsing circles. I don't know if any of the screenshots or game-play videos can prepare you for just how engaging and fun this world is. I'm looking forward to everything The Brotherhood produces in the future now. Such a gem! The only thing I wished for was an alternative control scheme. I'd like to hold the mouse down and have my character follow the pointer, like Diablo. This is probably just me, as I have some joint pain from all the clicking. Edit: Just completed the game! I will gladly run another play-through of this in time. Absolute engrossing entertainment from start to finish. 9.5/10. Planescape: Torment meets District 9 in an adventure game package. Just phenomenal. Bravo.

I have no words for how amazing this game is. It's almost the ultimate in choices matter for point and click adventures, and everything feels immersive and real. The art, the storytelling, the characters are all very real feeling and amazing. On top of that it has fairly significant replay value. I don't know why there are any complaints about the back and forth, as most of that is fairly standard for point and click adventures like this. And most of the time there are obvious clues as to what options you have available to you when you are playing. I can't wait to play more games by this developer!

Feb. 2024

What a... Beautiful game. Art and story are wonderful, it was really easy to pick up and put down and I enjoyed the lack of hand holding. It really brought me back to the days of exploring and figuring things out. Plays perfect on the Deck, only wish it updated my offline playtime. About 20 hours to complete.
