Dec. 2024

A rather good game. Good story with tough decisions in the end, and excellent graphics and design. I only wish there was more to explore, like where the regular people live and such. And I wish there was as scenario where both could leave the place in the end.

It's like watching a good film except every now and again you have to press A. The pacing is good, the story is good, the game doesn't need to be any longer. You walk PAINFULLY slow throughout the story but I guess that helps with the overall feel of the story. Defo would recommend to someone who wants an easy 3/4 hours of storytelling but don't go into this expecting Bioshock levels of action. No shooting, no puzzles, no jump scares, you just walk and explore. 3/5, worth grabbing when it is on sale.

April 2024

Not the kind of experience I usually go for but it surprised me. It's a short narrative game with stunning and well detailed scenarios. It's very linear and besides the basic mechanics, it doesn't contain dynamics that engage the player so don't expect complex puzzles. The gameplay is not the strongest. It contains some design problems that can affect the experience a bit, such as the UI/UX for dialogue selection or that the interaction with buttons is not intuitive. Although I experienced some critical bugs where I was forced to restart the level and also disable head bobbing in the first level because it gave me a few glitches, I decided to give it a positive review because I loved the immersion, animations, sound design and story. You can tell the game has a lot of love. If you like to get all the achievements, it allows you to do it easily. Make sure to create a copy of the save so you can get the different endings without having to replay it. If you enjoy walking sims, eye candy levels, reading notes to decipher parts of the story I encourage you to try it. If you are expecting jumpscares, action, tension, this is not your game.

There are mostly 3 aspects you should consider when deciding if this is a good game for you to try: 1) It isn't a mechanically engaging experience. The experience is an extremely straightforward, linear one, without any Combat, QTEs or Puzzles. 2) It is definitely a slower paced game. 3) Getting the full experience does involve a decent but not overwhelming amount of text/reading. If you're not averse to those 3 aspects defining the game, you will likely enjoy. If any (or especially all) of those aspects is a turn off for you, then you probably will want to pass on this. For those such as I who are more then okay with those 3 aspects: It's a beautifully crafted game, with extremely detailed environments, both visually & auditorily. The Voice Acting is just okay, but it doesn't diminish the experience by any means. It's a solid story, delivered quite well via a combination of character to character dialogue & environmental storytelling. With Playtimes most commonly ranging anywhere from 4-7 hours, it's a short but relaxing, easy-to-finish experience that lends well to a weekend play-through.

50/50 Pros: - The game has some eye-satisfying graphics that slowly change from post-war WWII pictures to underground sci-fi distopia. - The story starts as a slow and boring reason for you to walk around to a deep and unexpected story later. Sad but beatifully done, it reminded me of an old russian sci-fi literature. - No pointless violence and no pointless battles. The game is just a walkthrough of the story. Cons: - Resources needed for good graphics are way more than other games with the same quality require. - I was stuck everytime I load a check-point so I had to replay the entire chapter before I solved the problem with turning off "head bob" from the settings. - Although environment is beatiful it takes too much time just walking around and doing nothing until finaly we get some info. - The story is too straight line. The end may offer 4 different endings, but until then, there are no side stories, no side unlocks and no different way of achieving goals. You just do what you have to do every next step. - There are some holes in the story and some stuff remain unexplained, but I will leave it to you to notice and not ruin your experience.
