Neofeud

Quite unique in it's atmosphere. The gameplay itself isn't very interesting, but it does have a decent story and it's quite humoristic. The art style differs quite much from usual point & clicks, and I'd say not in a bad way.

I've heard that gamers complain about woke and political games recently but this one is really good. Sometimes it can be a little goofy and exaggerated but in my opinion it gives the story that B movie charm.

As a developer myself, I would go back in time and help this developer for free if I could, because the game definitely deserves it. Sure, the janky controls fit the theme, but it's a shame that the frustration of nearly impossible clicking puzzles can make you give up on such a cool universe.

Warning: my review is a bit spoilerific. I loved this game. I think it's awesome in all aspects. Cool handmade art, cool point and click gameplay with no moon logic. Good voice acting. Good story, deep characters that have individual personalities and a lot to say that is interesting to hear. Philosophy with a lot of humour. Pop culture references that Gen X and Millennials will appreciate for sure. I think Ayn Rand is misrepresented, but fair enough, as villain rulers in our world often wrongly say they are inspired by her. I love Ayn Rand references in games, good or bad! The ending is very satisfying, leaving you a bit uneasy as well. You don't lose beloved characters. The only thing I didn't like is we never get to see the adorable baby sister of Proto-J again. That one scene where she is taken away made me cry.

I recommend everyone play Neofeud. I liked it a lot! If you experience difficulty getting it running on your particular set up (like I did), there's help in the forum (which resolved my issue and got the game running for me). Pros: - the unique custom art which really helps you feel the depths of the dystopian world the game takes place in. Lots of attention to detail was put into this. - the writing (besides a caveat I'll put in cons) is equal parts fun and light-hearted with jokes and in-world pop culture references to make the world feel relatable, lived in, and humourous while also making sure you feel just how bleak this world is and the real world struggles the in-game situations refer to. Taking the time to build the world with its own slang really draws the player in. I've genuinely laughed with joy and cried tears of grief and much more from this game's story and world-building and how it moved me. - the voice acting - for being such a small team and almost entirely all the voice acting being done by the game's developer, SilverSpook - is really well done and brings this game, which would otherwise be point-and-click text, to life. - the characters feel believable and I have a special place in my heart for Proto-J. Everyone needs a real friend like him on their side. - the gameplay (aside from one issue I'll mention put in cons) was intuitive for the genre and largely provided good prompts and conveyance for how to proceed. I didn't have to spend endless time trying everything with everything or frequently refer to a guide in order to progress like games within this genre with poor conveyance can often suffer from. Cons: - the initial hurdle of getting it running I encountered, but for which there was a troubleshooting solution in the forum which resolved my issue and got it running. - I think I'm locked out of completing 100% of the achievements because I cannot complete the shoot out section on the first try without dying, due to Karl teleporting directly in front of the off-screen guns down the hallway when I click the place I'm supposed to go. So that's a bit frustrating but might just be a problem on my end. Others might not experience this issue. - the game dev did a great job with voicing so many characters and created a whole lexicon of in-world slang for the characters to use. Which is why it's all the more perplexing why the n-word would be included and used by more than one character, including a non-black character. When the voice actor (who genuinely experiences many forms of marginalization) for said characters is also not black (as far as I'm aware), it creates an uncomfortable scenario for which an in-game slang word would have sufficed to get the point across, without risking alienating potential players or the game having its reach potentially limited in an increasingly censorious social media environment (including bad actors who might abuse this fact to prevent the game from gaining the exposure it truly does deserve). I hope that these lines could be rewritten and replaced in a future patch and I will update my review if it does. Overall, this game is worth playing and supporting, and I hope more people get the chance to learn about it and play it.

The game is odd but a lot of fun.

I'm sorry

3 hour in, i am really enjoying it, really good game, it is fun, the character is interesting, the fight is intense, never would i thought i would die so many times in a point and click adventure game

Neofeud is an incredible renaissance of the point and click genre of the 90's a la King's Quest. The art is breathtaking for being hand drawn, the voices are great for NPCs, and the entire package oozes charm and pop culture references. The one caveat I would make for my glowing review is that the language or imagery can be a little too edgy, depending on your comfort level. 9/10

compelling and surreal. This game made me normal.
