The Feeble Files

The atmosphere made you want to finish the game. I also liked the humour. Some puzzles are simply much too difficult to solve without a solution book. I can't imagine how to do that. I was really annoyed by the passages, in which you simply have to press an item 5 times, until something happens. Also, there were many items in the inventory that were not used at all. if you are a hardcore adventure game player and you want to invest some real time, it's a good game for you.

IMHO one of the best adventures ever - Stasi meets 1984. But where is the splendid german audiotrack?

The feeble files is an old school adventure game that just misses the mark. The controls and puzzle design choices really drag this game down. For example, to use an item, you have to open your wrist computer which is completely non-intuitive. In addition, it has a large amount of unskippable scenes, several of which are accompanied by extremely annoying sound effects (I'm looking at you here Cygnus Alpha.). After the 7th or 8th time of accidentally moving my mouse too far to the side and exiting the inventory or having to yet again listen to the high pitched sound in the prison, I just gave up an uninstalled the game. Is the writing good? I honestly have no idea. It seemed decent while I was playing but, because of the unskippable cut scenes and the poorly designed puzzles, I uninstalled the game before the story could really develope.

Feebles Files is as good as I remember and a true point and click classic. The inventory can be a tad annoying compared to classics like Monkey Island and Indiana Jones, however this is made up for by great characters and funny dialogue. This game can be difficult to work out at times but eventually you solve it if patient enough, if not just google it!! If you love adventure games of this genre then its a must buy!!! Thank you GOG!

It's a meh. Puzzles tend to get overly absurd quickly - the thin line adventure games should not cross, sadly, has been violated here. The main character walks quirkly and way too slowly. The equipment panel takes forever to load (giving a headache when trying to use your items). Nah, there are MANY better adventurs from these times lying around, grab those instead.
