Bugs in Minigames
The game is fun and the graphics look great, but why 2 stars then? Because you can encounter some serious bugs. Minigames/puzzles can be bugged so you can't progress in the story and you have to reload/restart. It happend 2 times already and I am only 21% finished. I deinstalled the game and won't play it again and of course also not the successors.

great but frustrating lol
Great point n click adventure, some of the puzzles are quite easy , and some really have you thinking outside the box, worth the price of $10 that I paid for the complete collection.

Enjoyably Zany Adventure, Gorgeous Art
The world of Deponia is well crafted with just enough context and backstory to keep things interesting but without overly lengthy and burdensome exposition. The art style is colorful and playful, the hand drawn backgrounds are very well done and polished, and the cutscene animations provide some great transitions. The comedic style is best described as zany. A lot of this is due to Rufus' pompous tomfoolery. The game doesn't take itself too seriously and there were several moments where I laughed out loud at the ridiculous scenario Rufus landed himself in or at his unfiltered commentary. The hint system is well integrated and does not give much away at all. I would even say it should be a standard feature in the point and click genre. I prefer thinking about how to solve problems rather than wasting time hovering my mouse cursor over every little potentially interesting doodad to see if it's interactable or not. You may disagree. The puzzles in this 1st installment are a bit hit or miss. Many are quite intuitive and can be solved fairly easily. Others are much more laborious; perhaps I just didn't understand them. Now onto the main complaint noted here -- the pigeon puzzle can be broken and prevent you from progressing. Apparently some players experience this and others don't. I did have this issue. The fix requires you to download a save state from Daedalic's site. Choose the one closest to your point of soft lock. For some players, this is some grievous sin worthy of a 1 star review. For me it was a minor inconvenience and at worst a 0.5 star deduction. The inventory gets reset at least once during the game anyway, so if you're a player who doesn't care about 100% achievements then it shouldn't matter. Overall this is a well polished point and click adventure from Daedalic. It left the same aftertaste as finishing a good movie or book. All of the games are frequently on sale for a few dollars each, so the value is absolutely unbeatable.

Lovely World, but...
For me, the most important part of a Point-and-Click Adventure is its world, and Deponia is quite a lovely one. Even though it's a planet largely covered in junk, the bright colors and construction of its areas really paints a charming picture. That's what matters most to me, because even if it's filled with moon logic puzzles, you can always resort to a walkthrough, and continue on touring the world. And you probably will; in the beginning, puzzles can be a little unintuitive, but everything is structured in such a way that you have limited options, and each inventory item will eventually be consumed in a very satisfying way. The further you get, though, the less true this becomes, and some of the later puzzles are completely incomprehensible, unless you really like trial and error. The main character is also just awful, and to make things worse, he thinks that everything about him is great; I can't stand people like that, and this forces you to play as one! At the very least, the jokes do land about half the time, and when they do, they're a riot, or at least worth a snrk. Ultimately, I am glad to have experienced Deponia, but it's certainly not without its drawbacks.
