    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's graphics are praised for their cool and creepy art style, contributing to a strong ambiance and enjoyable visuals. While some users note that the graphics show their age, they still appreciate the overall aesthetic and sound design, which enhance the storytelling experience.

    • “Really cool and creepy art style, though.”
    • “As an interesting point-and-click game with nice-looking graphics and a different but enjoyable story, I recommend this game.”
    • “I'm not crazy about the puzzles, but the dialogue, visuals, and soundtrack are a marvel to behold.”
    • “The age of the graphics shows, but the story takes me back to the height of The X-Files.”
    • “The strange thing is that I know there's more artwork out there that could have been put in here, but for reasons I've never been able to find out, these have never been made public yet.”
  • story
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is presented through static images, transitions, and puzzles, reminiscent of classic titles like Myst, and is described as enjoyable yet complex, with some players finding it difficult to follow.

Overall, the game is recommended for those interested in its unique narrative and the accompanying extras.

    • “The two best extras are the original pitch document that gives more insight into the beginnings of the game's development and includes more art that helps make up for the 'art book's' slack, and extensive notes from Harry Horse himself about 'Diary of a Plagiarist,' the volumes he wrote in the 80s that were the genesis of Drowned God's story.”
    • “Even ignoring that, the story and play sequence is hard to follow although most puzzles are not that hard (walkthroughs are available).”
    • “The age of the graphics shows, but the story takes me back to the height of The X-Files.”
    • “Similar to Myst, it uses static images and transitions, alongside puzzles and cutscenes to present its story.”
