Excellent and Thought-Provoking Game

You play a person, who finds themselves in an ancient, and seemingly forgotten, Roman city. This is filled with information about actual ancient culture. Your choices do not always have very real consequences, because of an in-game element. There are well-thoughtout mechanisms that keep game play moving forward. There are indeed many plot twists. Most of all, I enjoyed the philosophical discussions, which are sometimes in disguise. Overall, this is an intricate, thought-provoking, and entertaining game! By the way, the sex you choose does have minor, somewhat subtle, but understandable, effects on game-play.

Finally, a great adventure game.

The most immersive game I've played since Quern. It's hard to find excellent adventure games any more. This one delivers big. Thank you Modern Storyteller!

Profond et original

Un jeu d'action-aventure très réussi, avec une grande profondeur. Le scénario est extrêmement riche et foisonnant, les dialogues sont de grande qualité. L'auteur est un passionné d'histoire et de philosophie antique et cela se ressent : vous en sortirez plus instruit, grâce à de nombreux dialogues sur la religion, la morale, le stoïcisme, la politique... Le jeu propose de nombreux dilemmes moraux et les met en perspective avec l'actualité, mais fournit au joueur tout le matériel pour saisir la portée de ces dilemmes et de ces débats. Il y a 4 fins possibles en fonction de votre propre rapport à ces dilemmes. (Le scénario est assez considérablement modifié par rapport au mod de Skyrim, pour ceux qui y ont joué.) Quelques phases d'action/combat sont au menu, mais seulement si vous le souhaitez : parmi les 4 fins possibles, certaines font l'impasse sur ces phases, et permettent un dénouement par des mécanismes purement narratifs. Techniquement, le jeu est parfaitement à la hauteur, et plutôt bien optimisé. Chose qui ne gâche rien : il est jouable sous Linux (grâce à Wine et Lutris) sans aucun problème.

Outstanding

I have played very few games that moved and hooked me as this one did. The story and the writing are great. There lots of really interesting and various characters with a complex and interesting background and great English voice actors. I could not wait to learn more about all the characters, their backgrounds, problems and in some cases their secrets. The story has several really good turns that work extremely well without seeming forced. The environment is rich and I find it really beautiful and fairly big for a game of this type. Some people complained about frame drops but on my laptop with 6 procesor cores (12 threads) and a GTX1050ti the game ran extremely smoothly with highest quality. Some people mentioned the facial animations. While those are not always perfect, I find that most of the time they are pretty good. And more importantly to me the faces themselves have a lot of character, expressiveness and variety. Overall this is really an outstanding game. It is really beyond me how a core team of three people was able to make this. A lot of work, thought and refinement has gone into this on all levels: story, playability, environment and character modelling, stability. I am utterly impressed and I am still quite moved by the whole game and the premise behind its story which only gets uncovered over t ime. If you like story-driven detective games, then I very much recommend this. Please make sure that you avoid any spoilers. The story is really good and you will lose a lot if you know ahead of time what will happen. It took me about 13 hours of play time to get all four endings and for what it offers the game is well worth its price. Luckily there is no significant repetition involved to get additional endings and if one lays the foundation for one ending then this will also often help with getting part of the things done that are needed for other endings. I hope that the team gets the success and recognition for this that they deserve.

Splendit!

I'm not exaggerating, this is one of the best plots I had ever played in a game! I just finished it on ending 2 in 8h gameplay. Time loop stories are always fun, and here we have the interactivity to look around on the city and talk to ppl to find clues. There's the main quest of trying to break the loop and get back home, and also side quests to help ppl and solve mysteries. Ending 2 isn't the shortest and I still left leaving many mysteries behind! This is clearly an indie game. Having the game fully voiced adds a lot to immersion and allows us to feel characters emotions, but it also shows how it limits on game size. Specially on a game like this, where dialogs are most important, it's tough to have all the dialogs and responses planned before voices start being recorded. I had played a couple time loop games and the most troubling part is not letting the game become repetitive and boring. This was handled nicely here, because the game is long so we do a lot of stuff and don't keep restarting, and we also don't need to keep repeating the same actions. Plot flows nicely and I just kept wanting to play to learn more! I hope they profit from this game and are able to create the next one, I'll for sure buy it to have another great experience! This is the type of game we just have to give us the pleasure to experience! The only down is on the badly optimized graph. It's visually good, better than most games and impressive for a game created by 3 core guys, but it has huge frame drops. The last 3h I played were almost unplayable, and if the game had battle it'd be for sure impossible.
