Still Life

this amazing game is for 2005 and it's a very interesting game like la noire its even older especially if you love detective games and serial killers pure nostalgia and underrated

maybe a point and click classic to some but as someone who's never played this up until now, the game just felt way too weird and icky. some things that didn't feel right: forced dialogues, almost fetish-like portrayal of dead women, painfully stereotypic depiction of a black man, the main character (who is a WOMAN) going "this girl liked pain" as her first reaction to seeing a dead body of a tattooed woman with piercings, then some five minutes later proceeding to get groped by her male coworker, albeit on accident, but presented in a haha funny setting (no woman would react to that with asking "do you like them?" COME ON). and on top of all that, it's an old game, so I ran into some technical issues that had to be sorted out. idk. had high hopes because the atmosphere and the visuals were super promising but it's just not worth it for me.

I originally played Still Life back in 2015 and recently decided to replay it. I'm happy to say that I enjoyed it just as much this time around. Even though it's an older point-and-click adventure game I honestly don't have much to criticize. The story is excellent, the atmosphere is great, and the soundtrack is fantastic. Yes, some aspects show their age but that's simply how games of that era were designed, and it never bothered me. For me, it's still a 10/10 experience. I had completely forgotten how the game ended, so replaying it was a nice surprise. The ending also made me interested in finally playing Still Life 2 to continue the story. Overall, I really enjoyed revisiting this game and would definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys mystery and point-and-click adventure games. Despite its age, it remains a memorable experience.

not a murder mystery without an underground sex dungeon

crazy good point and click with really intriguing lore and atmosphere I sure hope the sequel will be just as good if not better Clueless

Tried all the fixes and this game still crashed during cutscenes. Thought I fixed it but after losing over an hour of progress from a crash, couldn't get past one of the first cutscenes again. Unplayable.

If you love Syberia, you'd love this. If you love this, play Syberia too.

One of my favorite point & click games. It has a mysterious, otherworldly atmosphere that really draws you in. I especially love how it captures the vibe of 90s crime movies dark and moody.
