The Void (2009)

Mutilated and degraded version of the original. Do yourself a favor and go play that.

Last time i played this game I was young and didn't want to sacrifice anything. I never beat the game cause I couldn't stand not having the best outcome. Maybe now that I've experienced more life I should try it again. The more color you take, and spread the more pretty, but hostile the world becomes and you cannot save everyone.

Ох как же много попыток у меня ушло, чтобы наконец пройти Тургор. Это был мой долг. К счастью в игре есть несколько концовок, а значит ее можно пройти еще как минимум 2 раза. Обожаю Ледорубов!!!

The reason being, you can and you will end up in dead ends on your first playthrough, as in, you can screw up a run very easily. It's a resource managment game on a timer, so fumbling around will inevitably bite you in the rear at some point. There is a tutorial for most basic things and they are, for the majority of them, quite helpful and sensible. What makes less sense is how the world often reacts to what you did or didn't do. The game does not hide it's rather obtuse nature and it will take a while to grasp your objectives and, ultimately, you preferred goal, which by then might already be too late to properly prepare for. There is a timer of 35 "cycles" and events that happen at specific points without any way to foresee some of them. Drawing glyphs and pathways is clunky, dialogue is sometimes vague, events c…

DeVOID of fun.
