About
"Bobok" is a little kinetic visual novel based on Fyodor Dostoyevsky's short story of the same name.

1873. St. Petersburg.
Not the most prominent literary man was dubbed in newspapers as a madman. His portrait with two phenomenally symmetrical and lively warts was to blame! Unheard of human stupidity surrounds the writer.
Wishing to divert himself, he enters a funeral where he begins to hear the voices of undead people... Maybe at least they are smarter than living ones?

Unaltered, Unknown Dostoevsky
One of the most atypical and wierdest works of the great Russian writer Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky (author of Crime and Punishment, The Brothers Karamazov). Black humor, satire, grotesque, and a cross-section of the author's entire oeuvre fit into a short story where fantastic madness goes hand in hand with documented reality. The game is great for those who want to experience the original text.

提前把原作看了。虽然文本几乎和原文一致,还是有一些惊喜。 插画和背景都很美,色调很舒服。背景的钢琴会随着情节发生变化,配得很好。 [spoiler]喜欢彼得的图像。整个嘴巴垮下来,露出红色的血还有舌头。从棺材板中露出的裂缝中盯着人,特别喜欢。[/spoiler] 然后文本的注释挺有帮助的,被科普了很多小知识。动画和文字抖动做得也挺好的,尤其是接近最后的部分。 有图像助力的好处就是不会搞混人物的名字。整个故事的背景、节奏、对象都更好理解了。 喜欢陀的话就值得一玩。
谢谢作者做得太好了,非常好安利朋友读陀方式,陀读者都是这个!
Потрясающая постановка и дизайны мертвецов, кадр с Фёдрмихалычем на кладбище - идеальный рабочий стол. Пусть текст оригинала не слишком хорошо состарился, к финалу история приобретает классную диалоговую динамику и достигает нужного градуса безумия. Хочется больше таких адаптаций классики!

Literally the whole of Bobok but as a visual novel. 10/10.
Well, Guess I disliked this game as much as I dislike Dostoyevsky. Dk what I was thinking.
短小精悍,演出感染力很强
Это игра? Нет. Это увлекательно? Очень.
酷!
Хороший продукт по мотивам бессмертной классики. Впрочем, именно как игру оценивать это сложно - это именно что рассказ, сдобренный музыкой, картинками и эффектами. Тем не менее, всё это не лишает изначальный текст потаённости, подкоренной хтони и святорусскости. "Бобок" мне подарил мой замечательный друг, за что ему тысяча благодарностей. Устанавливайте, молитесь и помните, что жизнь коротка, а мытарства тоже далеко не бесконечны.
寒冷又狂欢化的…拉赫真的很合适
