Sinless + OST

A very simplistic low budget exploration game with a futurepunk aesthetic... it works on vibe and atmosphere, but at times barely feels like a game (part visual novel). The only real difficulty is navigating the different areas since it's not at all intuitive... there's a light puzzle element, but most of the barricades are just dialogue boxes you need to meander through. The music is definitely the best part and while the game in its entirety is somewhat pointless it does have an almost narcotic effect as a nonsensical fever dream.

Nice game

The game is fatally broken: If you buy it, NEVER tamper with the resolution or you could as well thorow the game away. I set the game from 1024x 780 to 4K 16/9 and the screen locked up in the left left side of the picture (with a balcki brder on the left) where I could NOT see the text or access the option game menu anymore. I searched for the game setting everywhere on my PC, unistalled, reinstalled, and even "regedit" everything about it, but the game keeps installing in the broken setting, no mtter what I do. The problem is well known on Reddit ad even on the Steam page. There were reports since 2018, and the last one was from 2023. The publisher help page is an e-mail and it does not delivers. the creator has never responded to anyone on steam either; the distributor page don't even mention it, which means this is abandoware. This flaw is extremely dangerous and could cripple your game at any time permanently..

I finished the first act but thats as far as im willing to go.

Feels a bit clunky but it's not bad, the story is interesting enough to keep you going for the short duration of it, characters and sceneries are well drawn, the music is not tedious and fits the mood well. A big caveat is that the game ends on a cliffhanger and after 10 years it doesn't look like there will be a sequel.

I know that originally this game was planned to be the first in a series, but since that never came to be I'm trying to evaluate Sinless on its own merits as a standalone experience. It's a difficult game to review and I'd caution that this might be considered a "neutral" review rather than straight up positive, as there's some things I enjoyed about the experience and other things that I didn't like. I thought the idea of a visual novel/point-and-click hybrid was intriguing, I thought the artwork was rough around the edges but colorful and surreal in a good way, there's definitely an interesting asian influenced cyberpunk aesthetic going on. Some of the character designs are neat and the sound design is actually quite nice, with a huge positive being the amazing soundtrack that also comes with the game. A lot of these tracks definitely add to the atmosphere and got me feeling a bit more immersed that I normally would, I'd actually go back and listen to the OST like the original Deus Ex soundtrack. The story is pretty slow going at first and begins to get a little interesting at the conclusion, but unfortunately it's all just a tease as they never were able to release the next epi…
