It Could Happen to You

👍

It's not actually that bad, despite a few grievances (informations are repeated a lot and there's grammatical errors often enough to lead me to believe that the writer first language isn't English) but I feel like it lacks closure in some parts (Leah and Jorge plot thread, for example) and the ending felt like a cop-out. I get not everything needs to be explained in a story and it must have been a conscious choice by the devs (you're just a victim among many and you're not special, after all, "it could happen to you") but when the story has no real point, it makes you wonder what was the point of the journey at all. It still has a solid hook, the mystery get you invested and there's a few tense moments as well but just know that you will leave with all of the questions and none of the answers. Really wish I could just give a middle thumb lol Update: After replaying it and doing another full run, it seems the game is also just a very on rails experience, which is too bad when it promises "multiple branching narratives". Every choices leads to the same story beats, the same outcomes and eventually the same ending even when you try not to get involved with the mystery at all. Dissapointing for sure.

Die Geschichte von [i]It Could Happen To You[/i] ist kurz, geradlinig und insgesamt nicht besonders spannend. Während man anfangs noch vermutet, der Plot würde sich am Ende irgendwie zu einem stimmigen Ganzen fügen, verkommt er im Verlauf zu einem bizarren Sammelsurium immer absurderer Situationen und hanebüchener Ereignisse. Im Nachhinein wirkt der Titel des Spiels fast schon unfreiwillig komisch.

Very good storytelling with a plot that is equal parts unnerving and engaging

I don't know what I played, but it was interesting. Easy achievements.
