Guilt Free

Игра 'Guilt Free' приятно удивила своим необычным концептом и стильным визуальным исполнением. Механика принятия моральных решений, где каждый выбор влечет за собой последствия, держит в напряжении и заставляет задуматься о цене компромиссов. Сюжет затягивает с первых минут, несмотря на кажущуюся простоту, раскрываясь постепенно и подбрасывая неожиданные повороты. Персонажи проработаны достаточно хорошо, чтобы им можно было сопереживать, а их мотивации становятся понятными в процессе прохождения. Отдельно хочется отметить атмосферу игры, которая создается с помощью минималистичной графики и медитативного саундтрека. Это помогает сконцентрироваться на принятии решений и прочувствовать всю их тяжесть. Хотя, возможно, кому-то может показаться, что игра несколько статична и не хватает динамики, для меня это стало скорее плюсом, позволяющим погрузиться в размышления. В целом, 'Guilt Free' – это отличная игра для тех, кто любит неспешные и вдумчивые проекты, ставящие перед игроком серьезные моральные вопросы. Рекомендую к ознакомлению!

Just not very interesting

"Guilt Free" is an attempt to cure the serious problems of eating disorders with a crappy video game, from a developer unqualified to treat mental and eating disorders. And, from the atrocious quality of this "game", unqualified to make video games, too. We know this because as far as games go, this barely is one, it's just a bunch of badly written cringey e-book text coupled with minimal effort point and click "adventure" stuff, and supplemented with "babby's first Wacom tablet" drawings. It's bad, real bad. Trying to address serious issues such as mental and emotional health through the medium of video games is misguided and can be harmful. While it's plausible to suggest the intention was noble, this can do more harm than good. The "developer" here is not a professional in areas of mental health and social problems, and when they use video games to pretend they are, this is not only utterly ineffective, it can be harmful. It's my opinion that it's improper to use video games to address mental health issues. Apart from the harm such hamfisted attempts at addressing social problems can cause, this offers zero benefit to PC gamers. People suffering from health issues or other social problems should seek out professional help rather than going to crap shovelware video games attempting to get attention/fame by exploiting such problems for their own benefit, as is the case here. The graphics aren't great, barely any graphics, just extremely amateurish illustrations. That's understandably a turn off for a lot of gamers, and it's a big contributor to the failure of the game to attract gamers despite having no up-front cost. Gaming is a primarily visual medium, and if developers want to succeed, they must understand that it's not an area for compromise. You deserve better than compromises. This game is fairly dated at 5 years old... it's showing a bit of age and won't give you a very up-to-date gaming experience. This is "free" enough, at least you won't be expected to spend any more money after you download this, but just because something is free doesn't mean it's good. Despite having no up-front cost, this failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at just a dozen or so concurrent players, and now there's basically nobody playing it. Even though it's free. This is a dismal public reception, but it's easy to see why gamers rejected it. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? Not this time. This isn't worth downloading. While this won't cost you any money, you get what you pay for, and sometimes, even when the game is free, it's still not enough.

not my style

wonderful little indi game

It´s a good one.

Cool game.

I absolutely loved this game! The characterization was done really well, the personalities felt real, and the dialogue choices made sense. The endings made me tear up at times and the art style felt nostalgic, an all around lovely experience!

У моей подруги рпп, больно смотреть и играть в это
