Ok... I sorely regret not playing this more when I first got it. It is eminently playable on Steamdeck. In fact the cosy style and pace, mixed with the strong intimate atmosphere more than make up for the fact that yes you have to use the Steam magnifier mode (recommend bind to grip for click toggle run in full HD as better for magnifier) In fat the style of the game is almost though it was built with magnifier in mind. This is THE story game I have been looking for on Steamdeck, an it was made about 8 years before.

pleasant point-and-click adventure game, with good puzzles, story, music and visuals

Caino, la storia è avvincente e ti porta a ragionare sugli enigmi. Alcuni non sono semplici da risolvere, ma con un po di pazienza si riesce ad andare avanti.

I started playing Julia at Christmas 2023, nearly ten years after it came out. I'm a fan of both point-and-click adventures and sci-fi, but these days it's hard to find any good new adventures apart from Wadjet Eye's output. How I never stumbled across Julia before I don't know, but I absolutely LOVED the game! There are the sort of minor flaws you might expect from a small-company game (you have to experiment a bit to find out how the controls work and which buttons to click to do stuff), but the puzzles are fun and not too hard, the visuals and the music are good and the storyline is engrossing and moving. Whilst I wouldn't quite put it at the perfection level of Syberia or The Longest Journey, on my scale I'd give it nine out of ten, and I wish there was a follow-up. Jan and Lukas, thank you! You've made a seventy-year-old gamer very happy!
