Why buy on GOG.COM?
DRM FREE. No activation or online connection required to play.
Went in on medium mode like I do in almost any video game, never made it past the first level. Switched to easy mode and struggled just enough and eventually finished the game. Don't be ashamed to use easy mode
Update: It's pretty good once you get the idea. The concept for the game is good. Still, I would recommend print screening notes you find, as your character does not keep notes. You can also add notes to the map if you like. After playing more, going to change the review from 2 to 4 stars. It's good, but maybe it's unpolished on purpose?
Initial Review: I reached a point where I needed a password, so I spent like 10 minutes rechecking the controls, map and menus to find that there's no way to access notes it says you've picked up. Does it expect you to memorize this stuff? I feel like having notes you've found accessible from wherever is kinda basic. If I come back, I guess I'll have to remember to print screen when i find documents. Yea, that sounds like more effort than a game like this should require.
Super disappointing, cuz the aesthetic of the game had me pretty hooked until that point.
Judging by the ads, this game intrigued me enough to play. I went in thinking it was just another rogue-like. Man was i wrong. With its dark enviroments, simpilistic design, yet very complex, this game really has reached a place in my favorite games this year. Not sure the release date but i dont really care. This game is a must play for people who like challenging games.
This game is great! Recently, I haven't been doing this kind of overview perspective game, though. Anyway, I'm glad to play this game. thanks for develop the game (and thanks gimme Free game, Amazon.)
This game is waiting for a review. Take the first shot!
