Description
Experience the first story in a mind bending trilogy! The Fall was recently awarded Game of the Year for Best Story from Giant Bomb.

Take on the role of ARID, the artificial intelligence onboard a high-tech combat suit. ARID's program activates after crashing on an unknown planet. The human pilot within the combat suit is unconscious, and it is ARID's duty to protect him at all costs! As she progresses into her twisted and hostile surroundings, driven to find medical aid before it is too late, the realities of what transpired on this planet force ARID to reflect upon her own protocols. ARID's journey to save her pilot ultimately challenges the very rules that are driving her.

The Fall is a unique combination of adventure-game puzzle solving, and side-scroller action, all set within a dark and atmospheric story. Exploration will be paramount to surviving your adventure. Utilize ARID's flashlight to uncover a myriad of interactive objects. If what you uncover is hostile, switch on your laser sight and kick some metal! Get ready for a disturbing journey as you fight, explore, and think your way forward, expanding ARID's world, in spite of her protocols.
  • A compelling story - Crafted over the course of two years, The Fall's story is a cut above standard gaming fare.
  • Story/Gameplay integration - Players encounter challenges that force them to think in ways congruent with the game's story.
  • Thick atmosphere - A very well polished visual style is complemented with The Fall's full voice cast.

An Instant Classic

While short, The Fall is beautifully executed. The dialogue and voice acting together with a bleak setting and scattered clues are perfectly balanced with just the right pacing of puzzles and challenge to tell a poignant story and explore the concepts loyalty, obedience, and self-determination. I can't wait for the next one!

Excellent

I'm a Sci-Fi author, so it goes without saying that I'm a big fan of Sci-Fi. I went into this with only one expectation; a game with Sci-Fi to it. I figured it would be short, sweet, and satisfying. I wasn't disappointed in the least. It is rather short, but for a sale price of only a few dollars, it's perfect. It doesn't overstay its welcome, it's intriguing to the end, and it's very well paced. If you want something Sci-Fi to burn a few hours with, go for it. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and for me, that's saying quite a bit. Tight, intuitive mechanics. Organic narrative. Exceptional pacing. All in all, excellent combination, especially for only a couple bucks on sale.

Can't wait for the sequel!

Haven't played anything this polished, imaginative, and philisophically profound in a long time!

Games does not run on 64 bit ubuntu

This and a boatload of other games on GOG does not run out of the box on Ubuntu 64 bit. Its false advertisement. Its true you can make some of the games work after hours of tweaking, but if i pay for a port i expect it to run. If i wanted to spent hours on config - i would port the games my self.
