More promises than the content...

The game is starting off big, with an interesting tale. And it itself is really linear, despite randomly generated passwords. Too easy or too ridicoulous puzzles. Somehow it was more iritating than relaxing experience. And when I knew how to get rid of the enemy, the game did not allow me to do so, because the trigger was scripted. See? This review was short, started off big and ended up being a complete chaos... Just like this game. :) End in the end, you know not much, just like in the ending of this game. :)

Boring, Short, Cringey; Move Along

The atmosphere of this game is Shadowrun X Cringey Pregnant Lady simulator. I did play the entire thing. Spoilers ahead, but really, I will save you the bandwidth. I don't understand what the appeal was here. The gameplay and mechanics were fine enough. There's really only four main areas. That's fine for a free game. The walking speed irritated me a bit towards the end. There's one area you have to run across several times, and it just takes ages. Most of the dialogue renders you unable to control your character, don't like that. Most of it was unecessary and just a poor attempt at tugging heartstrings. It was nice in the beginning, and the voice acting is actually *really* good, but the lines were horribly written. The mc spends the entire game degrading her baby and then at the end says one good thing about it. She hints that her baby daddy has a small baby-maker (family friendly review) but it's not like she was taken advantage of. It was a one night stand deal... I just feel like if that's supposed to be what she thinks, then it doesn't make sense to have had a baby in the first place? The story was really boring and made no sense at all, and here is where the bulk of spoilers is at. She goes into a hospital for some procedure in the beginning, and you wake up in a cyberpunk dystopian lab area. You go through, and stumble on a corpse strung up on a crucifix in the air like a marionette. That was the last interesting thing I saw, and it added nothing more to the story. You go, you get the macguffins, you see the guy that knocked up mc and.... nothing. He says "stay here" and you don't. From there, you get a few more macguffins, exit the facility, end of game. Not even a hint of a reason why you were there, or why they wanted your uterus. Then it zooms out all slow and plays sad music like you're supposed to reflect on your emotions, but there are none. I mean, I literally just finished the game and I had to look through my programs just to remember the name

Why is the game free?

It shouldn’t. Great care was given into the game, that makes it strange for the main game to be given for free, whereas the extras are to be sold. Some may argue about the short duration of it, but in my opinion Cayne should be as many other games on the site, i.e. to be normally for sale with its extras in one entry, even in a lower price, but not totally free. So I bought the Deluxe Content as well. Anyhow, I played this first, before Stasis, as it is a prequel. Very interesting story about a woman going to have an abortion, but then things develop very differently. Not complex riddles (with 1 or 2 exceptions). I write it as a good thing. Apart from placing items where you have to, you will also need to combine items in your inventory. There are some texts for you to read to get useful information, in the form of PDA journals, which are well written and they don’t drag long. Also, there are very few occasions (I don’t write how many), when death is possible, so save often. Amazing main voice actress (Sarah Anne Williams) and the overall sounds are also very good. Only (small) negative: no button to show hotspots, but there aren’t that many interactable items on each screen, so no pixel-hunting.

Unbeatable atmosphere.

Grisly, degenerate, and ultimately repulsive. I loved every moment I had with this game and grabbed Statis afterwards out of my desire for more. The writing is great. This is a gem -- a free one, at that!

Amplifying the horrors of "Stasis"

If you've played the predecessor "Stasis", you're already aware of the CAYNE corporation and what one reviewer called its "flamboyantly unethical" research projects. In a fashion similar to the progressively escalating insanity of the Mad Max film series, "CAYNE" carries the vicious depravities of this preposterously powerful research group to new heights. Trade the brilliant but unchained psychopath for a religious zealot who literally worships his employer, add more dysfunctional underlings and colleagues (all secretly competing, of course), and a positively psychotic element that I can't even mention without spoiling something, and you have the backdrop of this additional chapter. In another interesting twist, the protagonist is a young woman at full-term pregnancy. While the puzzles have their share of moon logic, if you've played a P'n'C or two, much of this little vignette should reveal itself. The one tip I can offer for anyone who really, REALLY doesn't want to consult a walkthrough is this: when you're stuck, try brute-force exploration. Combine everything with everything, look at every part of everything that can be looked at, touch everything that can be touched with everything in your inventory. Some of these solutions are obvious once you know them, but they would take some real clairvoyance to figure out. If you haven't played "Stasis" or the recent "Stasis: Bone Totem" and are on the fence about buying either one, "CAYNE" is a nice place to start, because it doesn't spoil anything, and it's free of charge. All things considered, it's a worthwhile title with an "Outer Limits" type of story.
