Good, but too easy and linear.

I was very excited about playing game from creators of Primordia but was quite disappointed in the end. It's a good game but doesn't have a depth and complexity that will make me play it again. The ending was also disappointing, there were some plot twists but nothing that will make you really surprised and excited. I also didn't feel like my choices matter that much. I think there were only 2-3 moments where it was possible to make a choice, but it was near the end of the game. Other than that, game basically guides you step by step on the path that creators wanted you to go. Whole game feels too short, like they didn't explore some aspects enough. I think I finished it in 3-4 hours. Music is really good, that's the strongest aspect of the game. Graphics - very good. It really feels like a post-apocalyptic world. I can only recommend it on sale. If I was about to pay full price for this game, I would feel simply cheated. It's harsh, but that's the truth.

Very awesome setting

Great setting, I really wish there was some type of spin-off of this game or extra material to go with it as it is very short. The puzzles are kind of easy, but that didn't take away from any of the enjoyment. This is a very heavy setting and they do a great job putting you there.

Pas le meilleur des Wadjet Eyes.

L'univers post-apocalyptique est intéressant, mais si on est dans du déjà-vu. L'histoire est assez clichée : le gouvernement qui cache la vérité, la résistance, et nous au milieu. Malgré les 3 fins possibles, elles sont plutôt expéditives et sans vrai rebondissement scénaristique. Ce n'est néanmoins pas un mauvais jeu. Certaines énigmes sont intéressantes, notamment celle permettant d'entrer dans le cache des résistants.

Well below the developer's best

I've enjoyed some of the developer's other games (Technobabylon, Unavowed, the Blackwell series) but by their standards this is very thin soup. An insipid main character, a lame religious cult, no engaging emotional situations or interesting moral dilemmas, uninspired scenario and scriptwriting, formulaic gophering puzzles. Sci-fi can say interesting things about the present, but not in this case. The scenario reverses reality. American society has been destroyed in a nuclear bombardment (that is somehow failed to counter) and a permanent pandemic is raging, with a government maintaining control by controlling supply of remediatory medicine (which they call "vaccine"). I suppose that part could have been interesting, but why is the government doing this? Well, the dictator reasons, the original bombings were by jealous Chinese and Russian states, who wanted to take America's material resources. If people recovered from the disease, America would thrive again, and the Chinese and Russians would just bomb again. This scenario obviously bears no relation to reality, and tells us nothing about the path by which an American authoritarian regime might ascend or how it would reason. Nor do the political factions chosen, who are styled after the French ancien regime and the Jacobin left, with the moral apparently being that dictators are bad (which is true but hardly very insightful). So we're dealing with a gritty dystopia which is really an escapist scenario in which no internal fissions in America's society are identified, America is absolved of its own behaviour (bombing countries to control their resources) which is projected onto its official enemies, and the political dilemmas posed are those of 18th century France, understood through the lens of a late 20th century liberalism that is not interrogated at all. It's an almost systematic evasion of the realities an interesting sci-fi would be exploring.

A Shard of Brilliance

This is a real nice indie gem that showcases WadjetEye's signature style. The pixel art is great as always, pulling you into its dystopian world, while the richness of the story keeps you hooked from start to finish. The voice acting is top-notch, bringing the characters to life and enhancing their development throughout the game. Gameplay is pleasantly straightforward, making it accessible for newcomers. However, some dialogues can feel a bit too long, potentially testing the patience of players looking for quicker pacing. I found myself scratching my head a few times, but that’s likely just my own n00b thinking. Overall, Shardlight is another enjoyable title from Wadjet Eye. I'm becoming a bigger fan with each game I come across!
