About Where The Water Tastes Like Wine: Fireside Chats

Where the Water Tastes Like Wine: Fireside Chats is a free standalone experience which acts as a companion to Where The Water Tastes Like Wine

Available as a separate download, Fireside Chats adds exclusive story content for all of the folktales from the main game’s sixteen characters. It also makes the entirety of the Dire Wolf’s first chapter from the full game playable for free for those who have yet to experience this unique journey through a century of Americana.

Where the Water Tastes Like Wine is an imaginative trek through history featuring gorgeous 2D/3D visuals and original folk music. Meet surreal characters as you explore the nation’s most distant haunts, collecting and sharing an eclectic medley of stories from some of today’s most prolific writers. Bringing them all to life is a remarkable cast of voice talent, including renowned singer-songwriter, musician and actor Sting, Dave Fennoy (The Walking Dead: A Telltale Games Series), Cissy Jones (Firewatch), Kimberly Brooks (Mass Effect) and more.

Like the full game, the Where The Water Tastes Like Wine: Fireside Chats experience allows players wander through the United States - and through a century of history - to meet a variety of people, each with their own stories to tell.

Features

  • A variety of folk tales and personal stories to encounter, told by characters from all over America
  • Beautiful combination of 3D overworld and 2D illustration in its own unique style
  • Stories by a wide selection of excellent writers
  • An emerging fantastical, psychedelic, surreal, and creepy tinge as the game continues

Игра "Where the Water Tastes Like Wine: Fireside Chats" – это уникальное путешествие по Америке времен Великой депрессии. Она захватывает своей атмосферой, очаровательной графикой в стиле акварели и завораживающим блюзовым саундтреком. Суть игры – сбор и пересказ историй. Ваши решения и то, как вы рассказываете разные истории, влияют на реакцию встречаемых персонажей и их отношение к вам. Геймплей может показаться медленным и медитативным, требующим терпения и готовности погрузиться в текст. Сами истории, собранные в игре, трогательные и запоминающиеся, отражающие тяготы и надежды простых людей. "Fireside Chats" добавляет возможность играть за разных персонажей, что несколько расширяет реиграбельность. Тем не менее, однообразность перемещения по карте и некоторая повторяемость ситуаций могут утомить. Несмотря на это, игра оставляет глубокое впечатление и заставляет задуматься о ценности историй и человеческой связи. Это интерактивная новелла, больше, чем игра в традиционном понимании, но опыт, который стоит пережить, если вы цените нарратив и атмосферу.

As a preview to the main game, unfortunately, this "demo" didn't really won me over. The music's great though and it's free, so there's that.

Fascinating stories told in almost stylish fashions. I loved how the voice actors portrayed the different characters and made the stories come alive; Cassady and Jimmy's tales are truly impressive. Brilliant.
