A movie-like game that you should try
Even more and more gamers are disappointed by the latest years’ offers by the Triple-A gaming companies. But with the advent of indie games, the choice became wider, and independent developers let their creativity do the job. And Virginia is a unique and memorable experience born by this inventiveness. This detective story gives the closest feel possible to a movie, it tells a willingly mysterious and ambiguous tale, open to the player’s interpretations since no many clues are given. In fact, the game lacks dialogues or any other verbal aspect of communication. An image is worth more than thousands of words, someone said and this actually not only results in making Virginia an almost universal game. The lack of dialogues is also able to convey more effectively the emotions of the beautiful soundtrack and in immersing the player more in a surreal and symbolic low poly world. Obviously not everyone will enjoy this game since you don’t have to really do anything in particular, just walk and sometimes interact with the ambient and the objects. Contrary to many other reviews, I can’t say It was a boring experience since it’s short, lasting no more than two hours, like a movie. I instead felt really captured by the game’s atmosphere. In conclusion, it’s a game that I'd personally recommend the niche of gamers that love storytelling based titles and a cinema culture to catch, for example, the Twin Peaks flavors. Rating (out of 10): 7 Graphics: 4 (Not realistic nor impressive, but surely unique and snappy painting-like graphics. Unfortunately, you can’t remove the black bars but you can disable the fps limiter) Music: 4.5 (Beautiful and powerful tracks recorded by the Prague Philharmonic Orchestra) Cinematics: 5 Story: 3 (A particular type of storytelling and scenes montage that may leave the player puzzled) Content: 3 Controls: 2 (Very basic controls) Gameplay: 1 (Very linear with literally no incentive to replay the game) Price: 2.5
