What an epic game! The story is really great and I enjoyed the mix of stealth, puzzle solving and a bit of action. The interaction between Amicia and her little brother Hugo is so well done. Companions in a game can be really tough to get right, but when you do it always makes the journey that much more incredible.

The rat tech gets even more astonishing as the game progresses. It’s actually quite incredible what they achieved. I’m definitely going to find some Dev videos where they talk about how they developed that tech.

[An aside - with the achievements in the game (on Xbox app) you unlock desktop wallpapers. Given how amazing the game looks, it’s a nice plus to get some cool wallpapers from it]

May not be Dev related, but I watch a LOT of in-depth analysis videos and critiques of games. If you really keen to go deep, check out the following channels: Luke Stephens, That Boy Aqua, Whitelight, LazerzZ, Raycevick, Joseph Anderson and Fizhy. Granted these style of videos are lengthy but worth it if you want a deep dive on learning more about them.

Here’s a great one too…

You’ll easily be able to fit it in that time. It’s not a long game.

I’ve also started this game. Not quite sure if I’m liking it yet, but I’m still very early in the game. Just started chapter / part 2.

Haha read his whole post. Not just the first line.

I liked it a lot. Though I do think the first half of the game is better than the second half.

The final battle is pretty epic though, if not just for the spectacle of it.

I’ve just unlocked the ability to double dink any non-heavy guard with 2 rocks dead.. With the fact that I’m someone who tries to find all the goodies, im almost always filled up with rocks and all the other things i can carry (i’m 1 update away from not even needing tools to upgrade). I guess stealth is now purely optional…unless they just fill rooms with the big bois

EDIT: or as it turns out, go a different direction altogether. I’m about to start Part 15 at the tower in the snow…

Aaaaaaaaaaand DONE.
Now on to…uh, probably batman, provided it no longer crashes every 10 minutes :’( (i remember feeling so bleak that i gifted the game to mygaming folk and its launch was so terrible…felt very guilty for some reason)

Must say I enjoyed it. It kept finding ways to be fresh enough with the mechanics that it never became tedious. Nicely done :slight_smile:

Ok, almost finished it. Was about halfway through chapter 16 and then kept on dying, got frustrated and Youtubed the ending.
Maybe if I played with KB+Mouse I could have done it but with controller I just couldn’t aim fast enough.
