Who We Are?

The passion of the Recontact Games, which starts with the motto of Playable Arts, is to builds the films on videos and cinematic, which are direct game dynamics, not on multiple choice storytelling. In this form, Recontact will make a name for itself in the video gaming industry with original content.
Thanks to passionate works of Recontact team, previously Recontact Istanbul and Recontact Istanbul Eyes of Sky has received international awards, the App Store has selected it as the game of the year, and now, they are back with a global project, Recontact London, to the world of mobile games in an ambitious way.
For Recontact London, the team has changed all the game mechanics from the scratch and it includes major changes. The big difference of the new game is now that we play ourselves instead of playing a game character. As the head of London’s cybercrime team games, it prepares to meet gamers with video puzzles and a never-ending story stream. In addition to be a hidden object game with CCTV cameras to find the suspects, it offers 5 more brand new video-based puzzle game using new technologies and it brings a breath of fresh air to the investigation scenes.

The starring actor is Ross Mullan, who plays the character Whitewalker in the world-famous Game of Thrones series, has also made a name for himself in projects such as Doctor Who and Clash of Titans. The Original Music of Recontact:London performed by 60 amazing musicians at one of the best Symphony Orchestra in Moscow. Filmed in British Museum to create an unique artistic experience for gamers.

As known from the previous game Eyes of Sky, the cybercrime organization Recontact manipulated the security cameras and made the crimes seem to have been committed by others. In London, things are becoming more serious. Mysterious ghosts stand out in the security footage of hundreds of people in coma within a country. Our mission as cybercrime team is to unravel the secret of ghosts and try to find out if the power behind them is Recontact.

This is a clear mobile port, which I wouldn't mind if it had been done better. I wasted nearly all my "sense" (something you lose in the game with incorrect answers or losing the minigames) with levels that would automatically make me lose from the get go, regardless of what I did or what in game help I utilized. This game is not hard, but I lost a lot "sense" due to the fact that some levels just didn't work. The satellite game was by far the worst offender, with about half of the games I started not working correctly. The point of the game is to follow a moving point with a satellite's limited field of vision, and to trigger new satellites. The less satellites you used to follow the point, the more points you get at the end. Most of the time, at the very start of the game the point wouldn't show up, and it stays moving regardless of whether or not the game centers you on it at the start as it should, so I would aimlessly try to find it to no avail and lose the game. Apart from that, certain other minigames wouldn't load, or would load with the mobile controls on the screen and no picture. Overall, I had a bit of fun with the parts that worked, but ultimately the game is too unpol…

The Technology points are out of proportion, to win each puzzle. It costs to do Satellite, you need at least extend view (5 pts) and 360 degree view (15 pts).... to solve each sat tracker puzzle. The win technology points are most of the time 0 (zero) gain it rewards box, before pressing Start. It takes a long time to gain points in decipher at 1 point every 9 minutes. This makes it unplayable, til you get enought to buy -- Extended/360 views. Have played 31 hours so far, and I'm Not Impressed with game as it now stands ---- Sorry Devs, back to drawing board at this point.

Very difficult to say but I can't recommend this. It's a badly ported mobile game that feels horribly unfinished. The overall story and FMV elements are so wonderful and I was deeply looking forward to it but unfortunately in its current state it was unplayable for me. It broke several times while I streamed and the last was a game breaking bug. It really needs to be fixed before people purchase it

UPDATE: nearly 5 years later I decided to give this another try and see if the issues were fixed. It's a bit of a good news/bad news situation. Good news: the issues I described in my initial review with the "sense" attribute seem to have been fixed. Hooray! Bad news: apparently you cannot progress past chapter 4. I tried myself, of course. Once I reached the point where I had no idea how I was supposed to keep advancing, I searched the world wide web high and low looking for advice. Not a single soul on Planet Earth appears to have gotten past chapter 4. I found a youtuber who'd been playing the game and seemed to be progressing well. He had every puzzle solved. I was trying to find where in his series he made it to chapter 5 and couldn't. All his videos just ended up being puzzle solutions. I went to the last video and he left a comment that he couldn't get past chapter 4. So well done, Recontact Games. Take a bow. I wish I had more hands to give this more thumbs down. INITIAL REVIEW: I really, really wanted to like this game. I love FMVs, I love investigation type stuff, this is right up my alley. The early parts of the game looked great. But then you get to a point where …

My first ever review. Yes, clearly a mobile port. Yes, clearly not been adapted fully for a PC audience, Yes, still traditional wait mechanics as in other mobile games, so why the recommendation? The game does what it does well, uses FMV in a a creative and novel way. It works well for a quick burst rather than completing most of the game in one setting like many FMV experiences (which i love by the way) Is this for everyone? No but if you like minigames and an almost video version of wheres wally? at times you could do a lot worse.

Bad mobile port, therefore lot of technical and gameplay problems. You can't solve the satelite puzzles without help points because of the faulty touchscreen->pc/mouse port. Gameplay is extreme repetitiv, there are only 3 kind of puzzles which you can play. The FMV-sequences are good anyway.
