Quit straight away since the presentation was so poor. The voice acting didn't even use proper microphones, and the animations were glitchy. It's nice that it's free, but it's not worth spending time on IMO.
Fun game that proposes a class possession system that I haven't seen before. The art is really captivating and, given the scope and developers involved in this project I really like the game as a whole. Story is interesting though I can see some flaws with it. Gameplay-wise I believe that it offers a wide variety of tools to encounter stealth though I did feel like it wasn't much of a choice rather than an obligation. I love the art of the game, from the menus, storyboards and overall aesthetic. I also feel like the game has a lot of personality.

Cool idea for a game with great atmosphere. The stealth action is a little clunky at times, but for a university project I am very impressed.
I WANT TO START by saying there is a dude who wrote an extremely negative review thousands of pages down. He has reviewed tens of thousands of things and just seems like an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, I don't know why. I say that because this game is great. For a student project- I went to school for games and this is as good (or better) than anything that we did. This game is a wonderful blend of Hitman and Dishonored and works extremely well. The mechanic of only being able to go places that belong to your social class is excellent- clearly a page out of Hitman's book but I just love the execution here. It is a great looking game, though I will say the janky animations don't help. I also just love the possession mechanic, it fits in really well as bridging the gap between Hitman's clothing swaps and Dishonored's possession ability. Also the teleport orb is a physics object??? What sort of madman designed this, lol. I do wish you could do more to stun or incapacitate guards, but it was fine as is. There were a few parts where it was kind of hard to find what to do next. So gameplay, cutscenes, visuals are great. Story is nothing to write home about, and the music is fine. I do like that you play unquestionably as the villain, adds a new level of fun to it, haha. The audio (clearly AI voices) is a full letter grade off for this game. I will say though, they become unintentionally funny by the end because they just fit the characters so incredibly poorly. There's one lady who says "These prices are outrageous!" But she ends up sounding like a TikTok auto-generated voice, like she's all yassified about it. Overall really wonderful execution and extremely impressive for a student project. Don't let the haters say otherwise; this is a great game.
The introduction of Pestilence is fair. It's an average game for you to explore and do wicked things, like infect or stun the guards.
This is a really good game, give it a go.
Very fun! Nice gameplay that allows for creativity and is challenging. Highly reccomended.

böyle bir şaheserin ücretsiz olması garip
El juego está bien para haberse realizado por alumnos que están en proceso de aprendizaje y a parte construido en un plazo de 8 meses. Por poner alguna pega al juego me parece que no se ha puesto el esfuerzo necesario para implementar una buena IA a los guardias o ciudadanos.
