Penrose

This is one of my favorite games, criminally under-rated. It clicks with my brain in such a way, beyond clicking with it, it almost melds with my mind, I can almost feel the resonance within me. An amazing game, please play it.

Estoy dejando una review para este juego, porque tiene pocas, y se merece una en español. Es una novela ligera de hipertexto. Les recomiendo probar el demo penrose.doublespeakgames.com . Me llevó unas 3 horas y media pasarlo , aunque me faltan un par de achievements.

Eine sehr interessante Spiel Mechanik. War mein erstes solches Spiel. Das Spiel an sich ist gut, jedoch könnte die Story fesselnder und besser sein.

Came here from the commentary track on the iOS version of "A Dark Room." The concept and story are cool, but I didn't really understand what was going on. I mean I understood moment to moment character interactions but I never understood what "the machine" was or what it did by the end. I came away generally positive, but there's some QoL gripes I have. Some things that immediately took me out in the first (third?) chapter: - I'd question the use of the word "dully". This might be personal preference but it just sounds...basic to me, especially for a first sentence. - "but then an alarm loudly over the old PA system" the alarm loudly what? Chapter 2 also: - "Marie's briefcase sitting indictingly in the center of the - table" shouldn't it be sits or is sitting to complete the sentence? I agree with the other review that the cycled music gets annoying. I mean, I understand how much work and personal passion went into it after looking through the concept art, but I can't help the way that I feel. I think a volume slider and smoother transitions might help. I don't mean to be a pedantic nitpicker but these were the problems I had with the game (Is it even a game? It's more literal novel than your average VN seeing as...well no visuals. Experience?) and there's so few reviews that this will probably reach the devs if they're still active.

I loved this game. The story, though it takes a little work to unpack, is fascinating and the format is so unique!

A game best described as "twisty." It does, perhaps, get a bit esoteric and incomprehensible the further down you go, but I think it fits the general story quite well.

i totally loved the mobile version of penrose and i will totally play through this one again. the writing is absolutely beautifull and really catches the atmosphere and feelings. i dont wanna go to deep into the story, but penrose is deffinitely something different! go grab it now and give it a shot! and after you played penrose you should go and play all the other doublespeak games, cause they are all masterpieces in their own way

Amazing, in-depth story that you never want to put down

Truly unforgivable for a game like this not to have any sort of autosave feature. All progress from my first session lost, because I didn't exit the game exactly the correct way.

这款游戏我玩了很多次了，网页上也玩了很多次，音乐很不错，剧情也还行，就是可惜我的英文阅读水平有点差劲，多个时间线与人物的切换很有意思，问题是体量不够，同时纯文字的张力不能很好的体现出应有的震撼，反而是让音乐作为主要的元素了，给情怀买个单！
