![]() TL DR No disrespect to Wadjet Eye Games but this game doesnt live up to their previous work like Gemini Rue, Resonance and the Blackwell series. I assume that the rest of the game is composed of other small set pieces of puzzles followed by some C&C. There was a sort of classic puzzle sequence to neutralize the alien though the challenge offered was pretty weak and the logic was questionable. It feels like the devs threw a meaningless event for the sake of offering some C&C but sadly it just doesnt feel compelling. In the end I still could not care about his life and just let him live to see something happen. Its obvious that if you let him live he will reappear later on and be thankful and help you out in return. The game throws some C&C at you early on that feels pretty black and white, you decide to kill a random alien or let him live. I could not care for either the main character or the sidekicks. The story somehow didnt feel engaging at all, Im still early in it but have absolutely no desire to progress and see what happens next. The 3rd option is to ask ''Who is X guy?'' which contradicts the first option and make the dialogue feel disconnected. For example your character is told some guy did something and you get the option of replying ''Wow really? This X guy?'' while both the player and the character dont have a clue of who that is, which sorta breaks the immersion and makes you want to skip lines. ![]() Overall the quality of the writing didnt feel on par with their previous games. ![]() The options that you have dont seem to matter a lot so you just pick randomly to move on. It is the only Wadjet Eye game where I found myself skipping through dialogue. The art style is beautiful and it is a shame that the rest of the game doesnt live up to it. It seems that my fears were confirmed, the addition of RPG elements, branching stories and choice & consequences has been detrimental to the quality of the rest. ![]() As a fan of Wadjet Eye games I have been eagerly waiting for the release of this game and now that it is finally out its pretty disappointing. ![]()
