Clunky tale with decent gameplay
This is my first crack at a point-and-click adventure, so I may just not be in the right frame of mind, but I found many of the puzzles in this game to be painfully obtuse. Melt the sugar to make glue for the fake ID? Screw you, game. "Ah, but Fay DID say that the sugar at home melted and got sticky!" Great, except she says stuff about everything, and half of her dialogue is just atmosphere! *Grumble, grumble* That said, each solution had some real-world logic to it, and after a while, the game got easier, and the mechanics of it were quite fun. I've now been sold on the genre, and look forward to trying similar games. And then there was the story. Heavy handed does not even begin to cover it. Global warming is bad. Yes, we get it. Stop that. The story is made all the worse thanks to the bad, bad, bad, monotone, bad line readings given by the two main characters. The problem is exacerbated by the fact that there is actually good work done by the bit players. Oh, well. At least it was pretty to look at. A good looking, mechanically sound game let down by a ham-handed story with C-level acting, this game is still a fun play, but it won't stick with you. Fortunately, it's fairly short, so you can give it a quick play and move on, should you be so inclined.
