An atmospheric Play between Light and Shadow; Change the Worlds and explore the tragic Reason for your Nightmare.
The Game key was provided to the GGC curations free of Charge gaming Experience Story Plague by a Nightmare, Iris wakes up sweat-soaked one Night. On the Windowsill sits on a black Cat, waiting as if she wanted something from Iris. Puzzyed, Iris pursues the Cat and unexpectedly explores the Origin of her Nightmares.
The Story is self-contained, but through a lack of Element of Storytelling, parts of the Story, particularly the Ending, are hard to comprehend. Nevertheless, a Story that encourages you to Think and, in a certain Way, is the tragic Story of Pinocchio without the good Fairy.
64/100 Gameplay At Its core, it's a Puzzle game, with the Focus on the Game between Light and Shadow. In this Sense, you can switch between the two Worlds at certain Points, marked by a Book.
The Difficulty of the Puzzles is mainly simple, but there are still a few more serious Puzzles. In total, there are 8 Chapters, which are composed of several Puzzles. If time is allowed To play through, it takes about 3 Hours, but the Game can be played within 80 Minutes. The Replay value is rather low, with no major Secrets, etc.
There are no Problems with control, only when Interactions with Objects could a Button have been used instead of using the Mouse, as the Mouse is hardly used in general. The most disruptive Was the fixed camera, which made the Control at certain Corners unnecessarily more difficult.
68/100 Technical Aspects Graphics The aesthetics of the Game are strongly influenced by the Cel shaping and the marginal Use of Colors. Due to the mainly graying Tones, a gloomy mood emerges and the Cel shading gives the Whole thing a sizeable plastic Look.
80/100 Music The story's Narrative runs mute. None of the Characters give sounds of themselves, nor is there any Narrative by Text, which is usually a very important Element of Storytelling, at least for Understanding the Story.
Still, with the Choice of Background Music, an underwhelming mood was created that engages you in the Game and conveys an oppressive & sombre feel.
82/100---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------My Opinion Iris.Fall is a solid Puzzle game that builds an interesting Atmosphere With the Use of Background Music. While the Understanding of the Story is not necessarily given and the relatively short Playing time somewhat clouds the Overall Picture, nevertheless it is recommended by the immense Atmosphere.
