Too many jokes fall flat.
Some adventure games, like Indiana Jones, throw in the occasional joke. Others, like ToonStruck or this game, bet big on the humor, choosing to stand or fall by the quality of the once per minute gags. Irony Curtain falls. The art and voice acting are pretty good. The puzzles are okay. The story (minus jokes) is. . . barely adequate. And while I realize it was a conscious choice to pronounce "Matryoshka" like that, I absolutely hate it.

Mixed feelings. Content not of this era.
A fun short point & click adventure, formulaically good with little player abuse... But fun only if you can stomach the anti-communism (or rather anti-soviet) heavy-handed satire, not balanced by any in-depth examination nor by much counter-criticism of other systems (e.g. capitalism). Without a good amount of knowledge on the player part, the game's representations may well be reinforcing unfortunate bias and untruthful clichés. Not a commentary on what the USSR may have been. If you ignore the historical context, the actual suffering that is depicted, then the game can be enjoyed. The puzzle are funs, the jokes are quite good. You won't get bored. A lot of attention has been given to each scene (+easter eggs) and voice acting is good. Except the US rendition of a couple of German lines. Some easy mini-games. Too bad there doesn't seems to be a way to break them in-game. The integrated hint system is fun to use just to ear the exchanges. Some areas are under-used. No replayability. You will miss what you did not try. But that's it. What would seem important choices are not - often delivering the very same lines even. Forced single-save auto-saving - harms the fun. Some unobvious inventory item manipulation. Some (litlle) counter-intuitive trigger flags (e.g. no passing of concrete for flour; no breaking down the concrete before getting the container?...) Some instances of disbelief suspension breaking behaviors, e.g. the comic bench reading that has to be used too many times to be credible/acceptable. Playing it, I was in the 4 star range. Looking back, I can't give it more than 2. It's like rating a comedy about the third Reich making light or glossing other the atrocities commited, using them only for the fun factor, being unapologetic about it. In the 90s it may have been better received. Culturally, this is not possible anymore. There are no good guys in this game, and that's a good thing. Better play DOTT or an Indiana Jones (with or without Nazis).

Communist Garbage
It reads like some edgy socialist's love letter to the Soviet Union. The first dialogue option you get, you get to choose that Communist Evil either doesn't exist, is justified, is good, or is as real as Santa Claus, which means that the writers have no understanding of Saint Nicholas of Myra. But other things that make this game unplayable: The dialogue is trite garbage. A script for a game like this should be funnier, punched up with dry social commentary. It is one thing, but there's a lot of poor writing. The Set Manager is too boring to be in a point and click.
