Es un juego especial porque es "real", el jugo narra la revolución de Irán que llevó a la expulsión del último Sah de Persia, un acontecimiento histórico que te lleva a vivirlo desde todos sus prismas y matices. Sólo por ese hecho es interesante, porque te enseña todo la buena intención que hubo detrás de esa revolución y te hace ir vislumbrando poco a poco como las cosas se van torciendo. Por decir algo negativo, no es el que tiene la mejor jugabilidad aunque en el fondo ninguna aventura de este tipo suele tenerla, y a mi me tuvo pegado a la pantalla. Si te interesa la historia es muy buena recomendación
No está mal, supongo que para agarrarlo en descuento, con ello tener un poco de conocimiento sobre la historia que representa ese juego mientras que puedas disfrutar jugando con las diferentes opciones y caminos que te otorga. Nada del otro mundo.

Etkileyici hikâyesi ve gerçek olaylara dayalı atmosferiyle oyuncuyu İran Devrimi'nin içine çekiyor.
If you're into politics, history, and Telltale games, you will probably like this. Though the story is short and has an abrupt ending, I very much recommend giving it a try. There are tough decisions, emotional moments, some surprising plot twists, and moral shades of grey. My favorite part are the real photos, videos, and snippets about life in Iran--not to mention the use of Farsi. They tried to do something unique here and they succeeded. You don't often see this side of the revolution told in western media, except maybe in documentaries. I just wish it was fleshed out a little more.
okay game, But worth it cause its in a rarely explored events in gaming
a good game
1979 Revolution Black Friday is one of those games where I wish you had a neutral option for the review… This narrative driven game, set during the days of the Iranian Revolution as well as shortly after has a great story and interesting characters, quite balanced and rounded, allegedly based on real people and events. From some of the (real) photos and film you one can suspect that this is true. And the fact that the characters feel quite believable gives the claim additional credibility. While this is a great thing, the game it self looks old by now (2024) – which might bother some people. Also, while I like the dialogsm the choice do not affect the story as much as I personally would hope for in such a game. There are also only one or two really challenging quick time events, all in all its more an interactive movie then a classical game. So, if that turns you off, you should stay away. Personally, I really liked the idea of a story-game telling aspects of an historical event from a street and “common” people perspective. But I fell it could have been a little bit longer (the game clocks in somewhat under 3 hours) and painting the different faction on the side of the revolution as well as on the Shahs side in more detail.
Kind of a Telltale game with facts and information instead of fiction. I like it very much.
