Harsh Reviews for a game i loved.

I found people quite hard on the game here, maybe that's because they are a lot more experienced point & click player than in say... Steam... but still, i found it too bad since Deponia is really a serie i learned to love as much as those old LucasArt game i grew up with. So yeah, this is mainly why i post this review even if i'm not used to. I found the game actually quite well designed. How to add another portion in a trilogy of game which have already quite a conclusion ? With time travel ! And since the main element is "time" that mean the creator on Deponia could go all out with that. Alternative Future, Frozen Time, Time Portal, Alternative Self, name it, you have it ! And of course, there is Time Loops. It's quite talked in reviews for being annoying and repetitive but i found that there were not that much of them, the final puzzle must be the only one where there could be "too much thing" but other than that, i was just impressed about how many creativity there were in there ! From a story standpoint, well, we could argue that it doesn't add anything to the excellent end of Deponia 3 but i find it quite cool by itself and a given ending for a time travel story... But i won't say more. So yeah, it's not that often that a fourth episode of a trilogy is that good, there is a lot of crazy situations with a lot of humor (still quite depressing a lot of time actually...) which is why i liked Deponia to begin with... PS : Yeah limited time for making action are annoying... But again, it's not too often and since you can save whenever you want, i didn't find that too annoying either.

Self-Invalidating

Worst of the bunch; hands down. Sure, this had some great laughs - probably more than any other game in the series - but it introduced time travel. Time travel comes with loops that make you repeat long segments all over again. You also sometimes have a time limit to get through the moon logic puzzles or be forced to start them from the beginning, and they love to waste your time with long dialogue that can be skipped and long animations that cannot. On top of it all, the ending renders the entire plot of the game completely pointless. The game only exists because players didn't like the original ending of the series, and while that does leave the main plot unresolved, this starts out by making it crystal clear that this is developer sour grapes in the form of a game, and that makes much better punishment than entertainment. And so it did; this was a long struggle with a big middle finger to the player at the end, topped with some half-assed philosophy that was a thinly-veiled jab at anyone who didn't like the third game's ending.

Too monotonous going back through time and doing the same things

A swansong to the haphazard hero Rufus

Deponia Doomsday is a swansong to the intrepid clumsiness of one Rufus…intrepid inventor and cataclysmic disasterer and a last chance to return to the loveable stench of a Garbage Heap that is named Deponia. Doomsday has all the familiar point n click mechanics, ability to look at or interact with objects or characters, combining objects into nefarious contraptions that only the ruthless mind of Rufus could devise and exploration (with additional highlighting at the touch of a button) of some of the strangest places that exist throughout the chronoverse. And here of course is where Daedalic has always excelled, walking a careful balance between puzzles so outré they are unsolveable, and so logical that they become a walk through the park err … trash heap. There are a few additional minigames that vary the pace a little bit, from navigating an old style 2d dungeon in search of the elite ring of women claiming, to rotating options on a genocidally bent computer, they can be frustrating and amusing but always interesting to work out. It seems Doomsday has toned back a little on some of the punchier humour that was the trademark in earlier titles, and whilst I wasn’t particularly fond of that humour myself, I did find that the game lacked an atmosphere and edge that it had previously held quite well due to the presence of its a-political stance. It is a pity to see that it has been lost. As mentioned the chance to revisit familiar friends and learn about a few new people along the way keeps the world fresh. The old characters are often revisited so quickly though that you don’t really feel entirely engaged to them and the new characters vary from very memorable to rather forgettable. Deponia Doomsday is well worth a try. It is an excellently constructed game with wonderful design and attention to detail. Although it may be slightly disappointing to those who had played through the previous games.

Just awful

I'd forgotten how truly awful this game was. Is. Will be. It dragged on and on, it completely invalidates all of your wonderful adventures in the previous games. For me, this game not only invalidates the games and the journey, but also my efforts, my time and yes, even a little piece of my soul. If you enjoyed the first 3 games- even if the ending pissed you off- avoid this game. It will make you truly furious
