Must play
TL/DR: If you like retro adventure games even a little, you have to play this. The plot is incredibly rich, the characters are nuanced and have clear motivations and ways of interacting with the world, the puzzles are not bogging the game down, the world-building is very detailed and always hints at a larger world...I'm amazed I played a game that scratched my itch for a good adventure game so deeply.

Flawed and inconsistent
I can't knock the ambition in this one. There's a refreshing take here where the game is split into a series of episodes where you select two companions to come with you, and this decision changes the nature of how you need to solve puzzles. Whether this constitutes a fount of replay value to you will depend on how much the characters and story satisfy. Ultimately this fresh take was wasted by some catastrophically hokey content. Staten Island episode is an utterly laughable disgrace in dialogue and art direction. The house in the Bronx turns those laughs into tears. It's a shame really because at other times Unavowed approaches artistry. Everything about the Brooklyn episode was quality, and I quite enjoyed the Chinatown one too. The voice acting overall ranged from middling to excellent. There's far too much deus ex machina and I still don't understand what happened with some of the amnesia or out of body elements. For a game that eschews agency and approaches more of a choose-your-own-adventure, there's that much more pressure on everything else to be of high quality, and it just didn't come together here. Whomever had their child draw the merman so they could skip work that day should be ashamed of themselves.

Buy this game
Pros: music, graphics, voice acting, a nicely streamline interface and most of all a story of some very human folks in a not-so-ordinary world. Cons: at some point I will have finished it having tried every possible combination of teammates, choosing every possible dialogue option - I will really really miss these people when that happens. I have laughed, cried, screamed, and gasped. HIGHLY recommended.

Best adventure game in YEARS
That. Was. AWESOME. Best and most compelling point-and-click I've played since GK2! And it's got some real replay value. Going for game 2 right now!
