Old Skies

I have played all of the Wadjet eye games and loved them all (some more than others). This one has a new graphics engine that's not quite as pixelated and "retro" as the older games, I liked the old graphics but I like the new as well. It's not that one style is better than the other, just different and both styles are good in their own way. This one is a bit of a slow burn at first, it is definitely better enjoyed by players that are okay with things not being (bring in the kettle-drums) 100% intensity and excitement every step of the way. I found the story interesting and sympathized with the protagonist and her jaded feelings searching for something static in a dynamic world where even the past can't be relied to stay put. The puzzles were fair and logical for the most part and in the few places were I did get stuck there wasn't that so many options to be able to just try everything. If you've only played it for a short while you might think it's just a disconnected collection of short missions but if you stick with it there are threads that tie them all together and bigger plot lines besides those of each individual chapter.

Great little pont and click with mmorable characters and story lines, easy to get completeley hooked

Excellent in every way. Surely a must-play.

Another Amazing Wadjet eye game so thought provoking!

The main story is good, but unfortunately it gets lost in the flood of all the other side stories, which are boring and have no connection to the main plot. The main storyline only becomes clear halfway through the game, and after that, you only get fragments of it. By that point, I'm already frustrated and bored with the pointlessness of the previous events. Overall, the game is good and enjoyable, but the lack of focus on the main plot is a downside. The puzzles are like in every other Wadjet Eye game — you use one item only once in the entire game, and everything is solved through conversations and logic. I'm giving it five stars because I believe the studio makes great games. However, in this particular game, I miss a stronger emphasis on the main storyline.
