A Confusing Game
I wanted to like this game, I love old-school point-and-click adventures, but it's really hard to vibe with it. Most of the time I'm not even sure what my objective is even supposed to be. The very first puzzle involves opening a gate, but I have no idea why nobody else could do? Where is this gate? Am I supposed to go to the gate? Nobody else seems to care about this gate, why do I? Who are these people? Why are they such jerks? I solved the puzzle, it's not actually hard, but then I looked up a walkthrough because I still didn't really understand it. The logic of it just didn't really make sense. The next puzzle isn't much better. There's nothing that really clues you into why you are doing any of this. I started this game with hints turned off, I turned them on in the hope that it would actually make the objectives clearer, it really didn't. I get that the world is supposed to be strange, but I don't think that's the problem. You need to be able to understand the character's motivation, and I don't. The game camera is also frustrating. As you walk around it'll whip around and completely change direction making it really difficult to get to some locations. You'll walk towards something you want to interact with before suddenly changing camera angle so now you can't see the thing you were heading towards. For example, there's a car hood you need to interact with, but you can only click on it from one particular angle that is fiddly to get to. And why you want to isn't obvious either, of course. The writing is also weird, maybe a translation problem? But it feels really strange and unnatural. For example, you get a pamphlet that you have to answer questions about, but the text doesn't make sense. The voice work is not great either, it's passable at best, but often distractingly off. Like everything was recorded in different places with different equipment leading to mismatches. It just doesn't quite fit.
