Grandma dropped a drama bomb bigger than my ex’s wedding invite. I played detective in her attic, dodged Nazis, sniffed old socks for clues, and still got cake. History class skipped this spice. 10 expired coupons out of 10, would time travel again

+ Good representation of an awful time in history. + Encyclopedia with lots of information. Horrible information that everyone needs to read. + Cutscenes are cool. + Jakub Hein. - Would have been good to be able to interact further with some items, like photo albums, listen to music records etc. - Coin system is annoying and superfluous. - Gameplay elements like these minigames are not fun. They are also not necessary. - You have to repeat conversations over and over again in order to advance. Some gameplay elements could have been less annoying but it is still worth your while. It it quite obviously not a joyful experience but an important one.

To me it feels more like a documentary rather than a game. If you are an history buff then i would highly recommend it, as long as you enjoy reading and a bit of curiosity, this is the game you are looking for.
