About Whispers of Prague: The Executioner's Last Cut
https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/2767990/extras/npcs.png
What seemed like a typical evening with a bit of hangover after a successful party gradually turned into one of the greatest mysteries Viktor had ever faced. With the help of the artificial intelligence ARNEAS (Artificial Neural Assistant), he traces the trail of unusual artifacts that suddenly captured the attention of the local treasure hunting community. And when he discovers that his own grandmother was likely involved in mysterious events fifty years ago, and begins receiving threatening messages from a cult of fanatic worshipers of executioner relics, he decides to get to the bottom of it all. Will he succeed in uncovering the secrets of the renowned executioner, dealing with the past, and saving his own future? Every decision could influence the ultimate fate.
Whispers of Prague is a modern first-person point-and-click adventure. Click on interactive points on the screen, collect and use items, examine mysterious inscriptions and ancient parchments. Gather important information through dialogue with dozens of characters you'll encounter on your journey. You are equipped with a backpack for item storage, a notebook with automatically recorded notes, and a cell phone that allows you to call your contacts, receive messages of all kinds (SMS, emails, analyses, and reports), or occasionally take pictures.
Never lose your progress! The game saves your position in three ways - autosave, quick save, and manual save into prepared slots. The game is also equipped with detailed help, including tips on how to proceed in case you get stuck in the story.

I quite liked it. The art style and soundtrack were top notch. Puzzles were neither too easy nor too difficult. All in all, a solid mystery investigation thriller that sadly seems to not have gotten the attention it truly deserves. Regardless I highly recommend it.2 found this helpful
I wish there was a mixed option, so sadly I'd have to choose not recommended. It's not a bad game but I'm highly mixed on it. I was going to refund the game, but I was over the 2 hour mark, and that's the only reason why I went ahead and finished it. A lot of the puzzles were wonky and you'd have to call your AI to help you through a lot of the stuff including puzzles. This game definitely makes you use your brain but at some tasks I got stuck and I needed to use the walkthrough, which most of what I got stuck on was simple things like having to call my AI or random people continuously. Sometimes when you'd ask your AI, send stuff to your AI to have it look up stuff, you have to switch screens just wit for a response, same with getting calls and messages from other characters. This game was obviously translated and the translation is really wonky and a lot of stuff doesn't make sense in a way, but you can understand what they're saying, The art was pretty good, it's more comic book style, the music was actually really good too. I love point and click adventures but I couldn't recommend this.1 found this helpful
Really great game, I enjoyed it a lot. Some puzzles were strange, so I have to use walkthrough, but I still recommend the game.1 found this helpful
high quality p'!n c adventure, whcih story-wise is reminiscent of major classics like broken sword or gabriel knight. visuals, sound effects, music, dialogues, puzzles, technical aspects, settings, nothing was below par. very good start from the czech studio shader mess. i hope more is to come.
Za mna dobre. :-D Priznam sa, ze som si dlho neuzil dobru pont and click adventuru (neratam Poldu). Dej je logicky a dobre nadvezuje na seb, ale su tam obcas zadrheli, ze som sa musel pozret pozret do navodu. Lokacie su pekne nakreslene a hudba je prijemna a nerusi. Tak isto zvukove efekty. A ano, nemam vsetky achievementy, ale necce sa mi to hrat koli nim druhy krat :-D . Mozno za nejaky cas.
pros: the art is fine some humor and pop culture references are OK cons: the story lacks coherence, and the plot progression is janky did not like the "get help from the AI or call a friend to proceed" technique, because it's not always clear when they have something for you the devs got way overzealous with achievements
