Cool retro classic point and click game like old-time! Everything I played from Wadjet Eye was great!

Had a lot fo fun playing this classic point and click adventure.

If you played Blackwell Legacy series or other wadjet games, this will also be very enjoyable as well. Dystopian future click adventure -- but with humans (unlike Primordia with robots, also another good game).

This game is terrible you can’t get anything done because if you look at videos you will note that their is a wooden file and you can’t get it if you don’t get it at the beginning of the game. You need this file. Anyways the other thing thats supposed to happen is this man Clem and he’s supposed to talk to you about calligraphy witch doesn’t happen. Don’t waste your money on this game.

The mechanics and voice acting and art is top notch! My issue is the same of that of a lot of modern day point and click games.The character just seems bored like they don’t want to be in the game and they are unwilling to even think about performing any actions that might be interesting. Just imagine some snobby pretty goody two shoes that doesn’t like getting her hands dirty and that’s the protagonist. In the game she’s a mechanic, but you wouldn’t know that playing her. Pepper in the ham fisted political propaganda of our current year and there you go. There is definitely a demographic for a game like this, and they obviously worked really hard at flushing out this world, the art is also amazing! That’s why it’s so disappointing these days to play the retro style adventure game only to be smacked with the vapid boring mindset of a modern-day mary sue protagonist.This game is supposed to be post apocalyptic yet everyone acts like they need to be polite to each other. Just imagine the apocalypse happened in the only ones that survived are the students at UC Berkeley and you pretty much have this game.

Playing this game in the age of Covid-19 is an experience that might not feel like much of an escape at first, but ultimately provides good catharsis. But for me, the game’s best moment was a little exploration of the distinction between curing a disease and managing it.

Definitely one of the darker games I’ve played recently. Technobabylon is still my favorite (along with Whispers of a Machine), but I enjoyed it. As one reviewer pointed out, it definitely reminds you of the current COVID-19 situation, but also very much different. I enjoyed Amy Wellard’s story and the environment in which she is placed in. One of my complaints, although I won’t take a star off, is that sometimes it felt like the Examine vs Touch an object was too similar or lazy writing. Sometimes they’re both the same. This is the first point and click I’ve felt this way with. Puzzles are easy (there’s a somewhat difficult one near the beginning) and story is easy to understand. The voice acting is superb. Overall, an enjoyable game, but there isn’t any special features besides point and click; you’d know what I’m talking about if you’ve played the above mentioned games.

If you’re an old school adventure gamer, what are u waiting for? Get the bundle! So much fun. If you remember Freddy Pharkus Frontier Pharmacist, you will love this game. It’s Sierra Personified. Don’t walk, run. Great f’in story that unfortunately matches Covid19 and a dark novelist from 1981.

You can’t do much better than this in the point-and-click genre. Wonderfully engaging, great music, and a satisfying story. It’s the kind of game that you miss once it’s over. About 3-5 days of gameplay depending on your free time.

Techno Babylon is my favorite of their games, but this was a very close 2nd. Outstanding story line and character development. So much so I feel like this could have been a movie or tv series. I love point and click puzzle games, so if you do too, this is a must play.
