Amazing adventure and story. Nice background. Classic point and click.
*If you're running Windows 11, be prepared to do some tinkering to get the game working. [h3]Introduction[/h3] I bought this game for Xbox around 2006 I think. I remember really liking it but never finished it. I've always wanted to go back and complete it, so here it goes. It's a standard point and click game much like Syberia. The puzzles range from reasonable to slight harsh at time's in terms of their difficulty. I would recommend Still Life tho. It's got a dark tone that I enjoy and the story has it's moments. [h3]Thoughts[/h3] Point and click games are supported on how good their story and characters are and how interesting the world is to be in. I think Still Life does an average to fair job in these categories. I like Victoria, the main character but didn't really connect with Gus, the second playable character. I found him very one directional and uninteresting. The story has a really nice mystery about it which hooks you in. However, I did find the conclusion to be unsatisfying, I have to admit the ending did feel a little rushed. The world is probably Still Life's best asset. I love the backdrops and wonderful artwork. Some of the paintings and art displayed in this game are simply wonderful and I'd love to own some of them myself. I think the puzzles are a mixed bag. Some of them are completely reasonable and even satisfying to solve but others do border on the unfair range. The cookie mixture puzzle is completely reasonable for someone who already knows how to make cookies. But if you don't, it can be very frustrating to do trial and error if you don't want to use a guide. [h3]Conclusion[/h3] I would recommend to point and click fans. Don't expect something on the level of The Longest Journey or Syberia. But do expect an interestingly little crime puzzle with a darker tone. The game didn't work on Windows 11 for me at first. I got it working by following Factualvermin's guide on the Steam guides page. It still works as of 2023.

Игра совершенно точно не безнадежная и не ужасная. Сначала о плюсах: для своего времени она довольно кинематографичная и неплохо сделана. Загадки действительно сложные, однозначно сложнее чем в похожих играх. Как плюс, в игре довольно много разных локаций, и интересная задумка с двумя параллельными линиями времени. Еще мне нравится, когда в играх фигурирует живопись. К сожалению, минусов у игры больше: сюжет не очень интересный сам по себе и развязки нормальной нет, действие переносится во вторую игру (которая настолько сломана, что неиграбельна). То есть по факту выходит, что ты играл 10 часов, а нормальной концовки нет. Полицейский участок в игре меня просто убил - ни души, заходи кто хочешь, бери что хочешь) Загадки сложные, это да, но иногда сложные до зубной боли, потому что это уже превращается в занудство (наподобие про выпекание печенья). Бесит невозможность пропустить диалоги и кат сцены. Героиня прикольная, но к ней не привязываешься, как к Кейт в Сибири или Семюэлю Гордону из аналогичных игр, не хватает харизмы персонажу. Вывод: утомляет больше, чем развлекает. Для современного игрока вообще не очень, интересно только таким олдскульным любителям клик-энд-поинт жанра, как я.
Fabuła gry koncentruje się na dwóch postaciach. Gracz nie steruje jednak nimi jednocześnie. Rozpoczynając zabawę poznaje Victorię McPherson, młodą agentkę FBI. Aktualnie rozwiązuje ona sprawę pięciu tajemniczych morderstw w Chicago. W pewnym momencie gry odwiedza ona dom swego dziadka Gusa Macphersona, który również pracował dla FBI. Odkrywa tam nowe ślady dotyczące seryjnego mordercy, którego próbuje wytropić. Okazuje się, iż identycznych morderstw dokonano kilkadziesiąt lat temu w Pradze. W tym momencie akcja gry przenosi nas do roku 1929. Gracz przejmuje kontrolę nad dziadkiem Victorii. Cała zabawa polega na skojarzeniu podobieństw pomiędzy ich śledztwami, co pozwoli na wytropienie seryjnego mordercy. Słyszałem że w tej grze jest bardzo łatwo zginąć, jak na przygodówkę. Są fajne przerywniki filmowe. Konwersujemy z postaciami jakie napotkamy na swojej drodze. Zbieramy przedmioty i możemy je połączyć ze sobą żeby przejść dalej z fabułą. Gra jest przygodówką point and click. Detektyw dostaje jakieś wizję i widzi poszczególne zdarzenia. Porównujemy zdjęcie, z dowodem zbrodni z lokacją gdzie miało miejsce zdarzenie zbrodni i szukamy poszlak. Gra na samym końcu nie mówi kto stał za tymi morderstwami szkoda. Gracz sam musi się domyśleć, kto mógł stać za tymi morderstwami, ale ja wam powiem kto za tym stał, to był Richard chłopak Victorii. Bardzo fajna przygodówka, która cały czas trzyma w napięciu. Zagadki są bardzo trudne, więc trzeba się nagłówkować dosyć długo. Historia fabularna gry jest fajna, ciekawa trzyma cały czas w napięciu, co się wydarzy. Bawiłem się dobrze ogrywając tą grę polecam.
Dopo Syberia I e Syberia II avevo davvero coglia di continuare ad esplorare il genere, e così ho continuato con la cara Microids. Che dire? Trama, personaggi e atmosfere sempre curati maniacalmente, enigmi molto più leggibili e divertenti rispetto ai due Syberia e una protagonista ottimamente scritta... ma se alle avvnture di Kate Walker avevo dato dieci, qui mi sento di scendere un po'. Un paio di enigmi (fra i biscotti, i laser e le parole chiave) non erano affatto intuitivi e anzi, si sente che erano veramente fini a sé stessi e messi solo per allungare il gioco nelle sue battute finali... battute finali che ad un certo punto vanno veramente molto velocemente lasciando alcuni passaggi insoddisfacenti. Un grandissimo titolo, una grandissima avventura grafica che non sta facendo altro che farmi appassionare ulteriormente a questo genere... Ma che, pur riuscendo a brillare, non eccelle a causa di una gestione delle tempistiche narrative che verso il finale mostrano il fianco a più di una debolezza. Ritengo tuttavia che sia un gioco immancabile nella libreria di chiunque sia appassionato a questa tipologia di giochi, o ci si voglia approcciare per la prima volta. Un bell'otto e mezzo se lo merita comunque!
I really enjoyed this. If you enjoy point and click adventure games with a mature storyline then I think you'll enjoy this. It's not all doom and gloom though, there is a good amount of funny lines thrown in. My favorite was the JFK assassination reference on the bulletin board. The story doesn't break any new ground, but it's competent and fun. Kinda makes you feel like you're playing an episode of forensic files, at least when you're playing the parts set in modern times. It does have murders, obviously, and some of the scenes are a little graphic for their time. Also some nudity there , if seeing CG boobies bothers you then maybe play something else.
