Nice Shadows on the Vatican Act I: Greed 8/10 Heisen

I am 32 years old. My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old. When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand I desperately needed to ensure I could continue providing. Upon learning the severity of the self-inflicted damage, I became almost suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man, with no history of depression or anxiety. I had never experienced anger outbursts, nor was I the type to break down and cry, but I was in a tough situation that truly prevented me from seeing the light on the other side. With nothing better to do, I looked for a game I could play WITH ONE HAND while recovering. Somehow, I stumbled upon this game and read some of the comments. I decided it was worth a try... I must admit I didn't beat the game, nor did I play as much as some of you. In fact, I may have played this game for only a day or two. That being said, after doing so, I had a new joy and hope for life. I managed to leave behind the pain and suffering that had been thrust upon me. I could experience the joy and happiness of other people. I relaxed for 5 ♥♥♥♥ minutes listening to this music, long enough to realize that I would be okay. After realizing this, I turned off the game and went back to work. My hand hurt a lot, but I was motivated. I stopped feeling so sorry for myself and became the father I needed to be at that moment, not the weak boy I was behaving like. Today, I am close friends with the mother of my children. We don't fight, argue, or say hurtful things to each other. We are parents and friends. Now I have 3 children. My third child is, wait, ALSO 4 YEARS OLD. The woman I am with was going through a very similar situation at the time of my separation, and we just unexpectedly stumbled into each other's lives. We have been dating for a year and are very happy together. Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today. This silly little game helped me realize that. Thank you.

No está mal, pero me parece que el juego ciertas problemáticas técnicas. La historia es interesante, pero hay una parte que a veces se buguea, que es cuando ves a la monja tomando vino, porque no le podes hablar como tendría que pasar en la historia para agarrar un objeto que necesitas, sino que no te deja. Ni siquiera cuando volvés a un anterior guardado de una escena anterior, una cagada porque tenes que empezar el juego de vuelta. Es horrible porque la historia parece interesante pero una paja tener que hacer todo de vuelta.

Un point and click honnête, dont le principal atout est son histoire qui ne fait qu'être ébauchée dans l'acte I. Mais que c'est court par contre ! Fini en 3h sans se presser. Honnêtement je vous recommande si à très petit prix.

Short, but fun and intriguing adventure. Best played with the Italian voices.

Une très bonne surprise que ce premier volet! L'enquête tient en haleine, on est dans un point and click très classique qui plaira aux amateurs du genre. On mène une vraie investigation, on ne passe pas son temps en associations improbables d'objets qui plombent le scénario. L'animation un peu "figée" donne l'impression d'un jeu "old school" qui m'a un peu rappelé Gabriel Knight. Et même si on ne joue pas dans la même cour, l'ensemble, quoiqu'un peu court, reste agréable.
