Brutalism22

WTF??????

Short and made well enough for a game with a lower price point. It is, in essence, a walking sim that feels very low stakes considering it takes place in an active warzone, and the ending sorta comes out of nowhere. I like me a good walking sim, and this game gives you that with some minor "jump scares" that don't affect much and seem to be more absurdist for absurdist's sake. Overall, get it on sale while you can if you have the means, and maybe consider getting it if it's full price still. Doesn't hurt to support smaller devs if they wanna make more. Slava Ukraini

A short horror game in an absurd style with a cool retro visual look. The bomb sound effects are really well done and honestly the scariest part. On the downside, the controls feel a bit strange and it’s hard to properly adjust the mouse sensitivity. The movement also feels a bit too fast and somewhat unusual. Overall, the game is definitely worth playing and feels like something unique. I liked it!

please, PLEASE SAVE FROM TIME TO TIME. this is an interesting game, mainly for its aesthetics, however to be honest it gets boring quite soon. It is kinda buggy from time to time and when I played it I didn't save my progress which made that, when I was getting to the end, I fell into a void and couldn't get back so I had to replay it all over again, which made my experience way worse. Anyway, in spite of that I don't really find this game to be a deserving representation of ukranian society or what is happening right now, it could be partly about the surprise or even numbness the dev probably experienced at the start of the full scale invasion, but I personally don't really find it a worthy representation. Anyway, its still great if you want to support an ukranian dev (to be honest I don't know if he is still working) but yeah

I really like the PS1 look to the game, if you enjoy walking simulator type games or if you're just interested in an interesting story being told through the environment and characters but don't want to spend multiple hours than this might be best for you specifically, it's about an hour in which you go around the games environments set in Ukraine about the invasion but it is not told in the way you think, the things you see happening are an allegory to the invasion in Ukraine and lots of messaging going on regarding it. I really enjoyed my time with it.

dum aah game
