Another Daedalic Gem

Daedalic games seem like Marmite from the reviews of this game. Personally I love their adventure games, and this one too. A New Beginning, alongside the usual point and click adventure hallmarks, adds comic strips within the actual game that you choose conversations in. Inevitably you're railroaded to the response they want you to choose but these still definitely add something to the experience, rather than spoil it. Okay the voice acting isn't Oscar-worthy but I find it by no means a game wrecker. What's vital here is that the story is great and keeps you wanting to play through, and for me it does. The hand painted backgrounds are often stunning and reminds you why you love this genre so much in the first place. In this one there does tend to be a hell of a lot of wandering from scene to scene struggling (and REALLY struggling, at times) to work out what the hell you've missed. But overall this is a solid addition to your point and click adventure collection and you'd be a fool to pass it up when it comes round in the sales.

Wish I understood German.

This is a great game, if you can get past the english speaking actors. I enjoyed exploring, meeting new characters. Right up until they started speaking. I wish the creators of this game had made a version of the original game with english subtitles. I've listened to the german acting and it's a lot better than the english translation. All in all this is a great game let down by the ENGLISH voice actors.

A surprisingly good story

First of all I have to mention the subtitles, which are a blessing in the gameplay, but horrifyingly bad in the cutscenes, not only that, but they are also out of sync. The story begins in a slow manner, but slowly calling your attention to the problems that emerge in its history, with interesting characters with very characteristic personalities. This is not a game in which you need a guide as in other games of the same genre, but I had to consult it a couple of times in some parts of the game. The puzzles are logical, they are not there to slow down the game, and if you don't know what to do, you can just skip them. The game has a decent length, could not tell you an exact number because I lost track of time, yes, that good of a experience it was, is an excellent game, at least worth a try. Is a point-and-click done right, and I love it for that.

5 stars for the German dub only

Beautifully made and satisfyingly long adventure game with tons of item and logic based puzzles of varying difficulty and only one puzzle that is too coo-coo for its own good. German voice acting is great all around. Full recommendation and worth it even at full price. 5 stars for the German dub only, the English dub is poorly done. For the best experience, choose German as the spoken language during the installation and choose your own language for the subtitles and you'll be perfectly fine.

This is a 3.5 point&click to me.

I enjoyed the gameplay, the puzzles and the graphics. I have tolerated the ecologist preaching. And finally, I have suffered the cheesy story and the soap opera dialogues.
