I remember this game from back when Jacksepticeye played it for one video and decided now that I can afford it, to try it myself; I rather enjoyed it, felt less stressful, for me, than games that are the same ilk, like 'papers, please'. do give this a go if you liked that game, it also feels very topical once again, due to politics being, well politics /neg. overall I recommend this game (:
I was holding off on writing a review for this game until I had completed my first playthrough. Now that I have, I can say that this is somehow both one of the best and most frustrating games I've ever played. In terms of gameplay: -At first, I was definitely a little bored, and I gave up on the game for a while. But I am really glad that I came back to it. It does have a kind of slow start in my opinion, but I found it really enjoyable when I got back into it. I don't think it's a game that should be played for long periods of time at once. The way I found myself enjoying it the most was playing for a few in-game days per day, and occasionally taking breaks from it. -If you're looking for a game where new stuff is always going to happen then this might not be the game for you. The main part of the game is 'look at IDs and allow or deny entry'. I won't lie, it's easy to get burned out by playing this game for too long. Of course it's not the exact same throughout. New things are added and the backgrounds change, and the game does have a story. But just know that you're going to be doing a lot of the same thing throughout your time playing. -All of the art looks great. Especially the backgrounds, it's clear that a lot of effort went into them, and it's so cool looking at all of the little details in a new area. Probably some of the prettiest pixel art I've seen in a game. -The game runs mostly smoothly on a slower/older laptop. On occasion, there are small lag spikes, but they don't last, and I have only once had the game crash. -When I started, I found the save slots to be kind of confusing. You get 3 save slots. I don't know if they're meant to be this way or if I've just been doing it wrong, but every time you play, your game will save in a different slot. If you have 3 slots filled, you have to delete one before playing. Again, I could just be doing this wrong, I'm not sure. Also, if you've gotten past chapter 1, when you click 'load game', it looks empty. You just have to scroll to the next chapter. The most prominent recurring characters in this game are all very charming, and have their own unique personalities. It's probably my favourite part of the game seeing how characters interact with you, and how their opinions change over time. By itself, I think the story is an interesting premise. I don't know if I'd consider it to be anything very special, but then again I'm not particularly experienced with political games. I definitely didn't dislike it though. And I think the characters are what really helped to elevate it, and what made me so attached to the game. I also really liked that the player character actually seemed to have some personality. Of course the game is influenced by what you do, but sometimes the player character will talk back in an almost playful sense. I wasn't expecting it, but I think it's great and helps to get more invested in the world. I really like the dialogue between the characters and player. Yes, it is in fact very British. Most of the criticism that I have seen for this game is that it's too similar to the game 'Papers, Please'. Yes, there definitely are similarities between the two. I found Not Tonight to be easier to get invested in. I think Papers Please feels more repetitive because you stay in the same place the whole time. But Not Tonight has a lot of locations. I also think that Not Tonight's characters are more memorable than the ones in Papers Please. I realise that it's starting to sound kind of like I'm just trying to be rude about Papers Please, so I'm going to leave it there. I do genuinely love both games. If you like Papers Please, you might want to give this game a try too. I do think that the two games are similar. I think Papers Please focuses more on the 'doing the job' aspect, whereas Not Tonight, in my opinion, has more focus put into worldbuilding. A lot of the negative things I've heard people say about this game is that it's just a knockoff of Papers Please. I definitely don't think that's true. They're both unique games, and if you give Not Tonight a chance for yourself then you'd be able to see the differences more clearly. The game can get quite difficult at times. There were a few times where, admittedly, I closed the game partway through out of frustration. But, while I got burned out a few times, I never found myself actively disliking the game, and after a little while I would usually be wanting to play again. So, that's basically all I have to say. Sorry if it's hard to understand or kind of all over the place, I'm not used to writing game reviews, I just wanted to share my appreciation for this game. Now that I've completed this, I'm super excited to play the sequel since it's been in my library for quite some time now. P.S, I don't know how good the One Love DLC is because I don't have it, and I also can't comment on the soundtrack since I play with sound off. Also, I'm not like, really good at video games or anything, so your time playing might be different to mine. TLDR; Game can be a little hard to get invested in at first, but later on it really does become amazing. I love this game. I'm giving it like a 9.6/10
It's nice to have a game that's totally unique and makes you want to actually progress further just to see what's on the horizon. Unfortunately my save file bugged out after i got past the first chapter which is frustrating, i hope the developers fix this then i will be willing to play again. Overall good music and good vibes tho, kicking french people out of my pub with **** on my head and selling to cheeseheads, whilst getting spoken to like trash by all the bar owners and anyone i deny access to :)
UPDATE: I was able to fix my problem myself by going nuclear. Uninstalled and wiped the game from existence on my computer with Steam Cloud turned off. I'm ashamed to admit but... I WILL keep on playing. The game is that fun! It's Papers, Please but more quirky. My original review still stands - TL;DR no active game support. Need to DIY if you have any probs. ORIGINAL: Know that there's likely no more game support. I had a lot of fun playing this game but unfortunately I ended up with buggy save/load problems and never being able to reload a game save from a specific day on. I contacted info@panicbarn.com about this twice and never hear back. The link to their discord server is dead and it looks like no one else online has been able to find it either. Shame bc I would've totally bought the DLC and Not Tonight 2.
