Goodbye Deponia
- October 17, 2013
- Daedalic Entertainment
- 15h median play time
Goodbye Deponia has some great things going for it: the gorgeous staged scenes set against hand-painted backdrops are Daedalic’s trademark, and they seem to have pulled it off again here. Tough yet satisfying logic puzzles and hilarious mini-games make it a pretty decent adventure to play through when you’re just looking to unwind and mull over some brain teasers for a while. The plot is skillfully written and brimming with a very peculiar brand of German creativity. The sound design is smooth as a Miles Davis solo, and the songs will have you chuckling at their weirdness more often than not. What’s not to love?
In Goodbye Deponia, the third game in the Deponia trilogy, Rufus continues his quest to reach the space station Elysium and escape his polluted planet. He finds himself in a love triangle with Goal and her alternate self, Compendia, while facing off against the Organon. The game features the series' signature humor and hand-drawn art style as Rufus tries to save Deponia one last time.
