Interference: Dead Air

The game just ends if you dont choose the nice dialogue options while talking to an absolute caricature of a woman. Waste of money!

I really wanted to like this game. The setting, the art style, the world building and environmental storytelling. And then it just ends. This feels like a demo or proof of concept more than a finished game. Not for lack of polish, just lack of ... game. Even on sale I really didn't get the value I had hoped. DO NOT buy full price. [spoiler] Are you supposed to hate Valerie? She has the most explosive selfish responses to almost every dialogue choice even the ones that seem like reasonable responses. You basically have to give into her mid crisis temper tantrum to keep her alive. [/spoiler]

Cute

Wasted potential in my honest opinion. I'm not sure if I've missed the mark or something? I remember watching this game on YouTube and actually really enjoying it. I have almost completely forgotten the game since, and decided it'll be a fun idea to play it myself now. First off, I really love the general plot of the game - this secret lab, things go wrong, blah blah blah SCP and Black Mesa, yada yada yada. All sounds great! Exactly my kinda jam! The interesting part of the whole game is the fact that we as a player are far away from the centre of the events, and we can only see things happening outside the window. I thought that was really unique and cool, something like the first The Last of Us did at the start of the game, where you could see a broadcast on TV of events happening down couple of streets away from you, which both games manage to capture quite well in that sense - of this like surreality, but also you don't feel like the main character. This part is great! Sadly, the game fell really flat for me, very quickly too. Some things are just designed in such a way here, it's almost like they're [b] meant [/b] to piss you off. Valerie is one of those things, whi…

Great small game, was looking for something similar to Killer Frequency and this has been a nice addition for few hours Love the soundtrack

I’m giving this a thumbs up, but in reality it’s more of a meh. There’s truly only two “puzzles” in the game, using the map to guide Valerie, and fixing the power outages, and truthfully calling them puzzles is a stretch. It’s not very long, and you’re not with the characters long enough to care one way or the other. If you want a more fun puzzle story game, Killer Frequency. I had a blast with that one. If you want a more relationship-story game, Firewatch. Frequency is a combo of both, but not as good in either facet. That said, I still give it a thumbs up because I just like the moody 80s horror vibes. I enjoyed my time listening to the story unfold, the voice acting is pretty good, and I got it for $5. Bottom line: I like what it’s going for, but it’s not great in any of those areas.
