Cahors Sunset

This game is simple but so so beautiful. Reading the life story of the main character is a rollercoaster of emotions, and the historical facts that pop up are both entertaining and informative. Some of the options can get repetitive, but other than that, this game is a must have for your library

If this game has taught me anything, it is how important it is for Old People to be allowed into Stripclubs and Casinos! Visiting family, playing chess in the park, strolling aroud the neighbourhood... none of this brings as much joy and benefit when compared to being a gambling lecher. +10 points to devs for stealing all the artwork from social media sites. +10 points for proving that pigeons really do aim for old people +10 points for having unlimited supply of cars to sell +10 points for showing us that an old person can die simply by listening to a song they hate -10 points for not being anime.

Worth a single play-through, at a < $1 price point for about an hour of fun. You should also like text-based multiple choice games. An interest in history helps, as each turn represents a real-world month and you're presented with a factoid culled from that month's 1960's French history. I got through the entire story on my first try, by picking the best long-term choices (i.e. the ones that gave me the highest aggregate point total) rather than worrying about one stat getting too high or too low. However, the game becomes more punishing every year, to the point where your last few months are spent in a desperate attempt not to fall too low in any one stat, leading to choices that fix short-tern problems but inevitably doom you....much like real life.

Tags: Adventure - VN - Visual Novel Additional Tags: Delete Local Content & Remove from Library TLDR: Mundane elderly life simulator with high ante's that rise and grind you to death. Made in Adobe Air. Yuck. Feels like a cross between The Graveyard and No Time to Live Every turn pick one of three actions which makes your 6 survival gauges go up and down. Random events happen which can also affect them. As you get through more turns you will start going back from your early adulthood and retracing major points of the protag's life. Every year you can affect a + and - modifier to your stats monthly as part of a resolution. They never provide any advantage and makes the game more volatile, best strategy is to have them cancel out which is unfortunate. Eventually the storyline reaches your old age where you become widowed with a single question, how long can life last. Since every birthday you take a penalty to all survival gauges and it increases every year, it is just a matter of time until you get grinded down, which as a artentainment narrative might work but mechanically for a game its not ideal as it hurts interactivity which is probably not something you should do in an already niche game about old age. Additionally all this RNG means I get bit by a dog while staying at home and watching TV and other oddities. All things considered this is okay to experience once but very forgettable and not very well designed so I will remove it for declutter.

A game that feeds you story day by day. It goes from story segment to stat-raising decision to random stat-changing event and then repeats as long as you keep your stats high enough to live another day. You celebrate every birthday by losing stats and getting closer to death. The story was pretty interesting but depressing. From as far as I got in my playthroughs, it's a depressing story that highlights the bad things that happen when you live long enough to experience them. The gameplay was disappointing to me because the choices were only about the stats. In my first playthrough I hoped that the choices mattered beyond juggling stats. I picked choices that felt good to me (stats were important but I also factored in how I felt about the actual action). But eventually it felt like the options were randomly generated and didn't affect anything beyond the stat gains/losses. There were times when two options had the same stat changes but the action was seeing a different movie/show. I hoped that meant there was something special about the choice but I never saw the difference. Nothing special happens if you skip your meds, smoke or quit, pay back debts, or keep in touch with family. If I recall correctly, at another time I got the option to sell my old car which I declined, then two months later bought a new car, and then again, two months later I bought another new car. That was silly enough to break my immersion. I got to the 'end game' in my second playthrough by ignoring the action flavor text and picking choices that had the best overall net gains (there are choices that give you a net loss) and prioritizing stats that were getting low. Maybe worth a try if you want to see a depressing story. The gameplay itself is just filler that limits how much story you can see.

+ zajímavý nápad + pěkné fotky v pozadí + délka - cena - přestalo mě to bavit asi po 3 minutách, ať jsem se rozhodla jakkoli ubralo mi to :D

Really good game except the moving pictures in the background made my eyes hurt when I read the text.

France loses too many matches and pigeons are always bothering.... but i liked the game

You are the old man making choices on how to live on through life. This game is much more of something you choose in order to stay alive, and whatever you choose you either gain or lose something (such as anxiety, mood, physical health, money, etc.). You need to keep status above 25, lower than that will risk of death. The game is actually interesting, this is more of a survival game and theres apparently global ranking. So see if you can live out the longest than anyone in that score if you are up for it. You'll have to be smart on what choice you make, otherwise you will have a hard time going through choices that keeps you going forcing you to lower your status in order to gain another. Luck is also involved when you select your choice, so prepare whats coming to you. Anyways, 10/10. Would try again if i feel like it. And regardless of my game time, i was rather new to it and did it only one go. It gets harder eventually, so prepare yourself if you are buying this.

I killed a man in less than a half hour. 10/10
