An interactive museum game experience
‘Attentat 1942’ is a choice-matter adventure game/edutainment, in which you play a grandchild of World War II survivors. Set in Prague in 2001, you investigate what happened to your grandfather after the assassination of Reinhard Heydrich. By interviewing key people in his life and looking through memorabilia, you learn more about the oppression of then Nazi German-occupied Czechoslovakia. While the story and characters of ‘Attentat 1942’ are fictional, they’re created around artifacts, accounts, photos and film footages from the days of WWII and the Holocaust. Because the game is played mainly in first-person perspective, it conveys a sense of personal discovery of family history, especially through the full motion videos. The interactive comic strips and mini games add some tension to the personal stories. As you conduct interviews, in-game encyclopedia entries are unlocked. These entries are like those you’d find in a museum, providing more details about a specific person or topic. If WWII and the Holocaust are of interest to you, ‘Attentat 1942’ is a title you should check out; otherwise, you may find the slow pacing and great emphasis on reading historical information somewhat dull. I found the need to unlock encyclopedia entries annoying. You’ll have to repeat interviews (at the expense coins that you earn from playing mini games) to unlock entries that you missed out on. Since you can finish the game without unlocking all entries, this aspect of game design works against educating players about the subject matter. Making your audience figure out how to unlock information is unnecessarily obstructive. ‘Attentat 1942’ crashed on startup for me on several instances, often happening 1 to 3 times before it’d run properly. Yet, they’re just minor annoyances. Overall, I enjoyed the education and interactive museum experience that the game provided. Anyone interested in the Czech perspectives of WWII and the Holocaust will likely find this game appealing.
