I absolutely love this game! The story is beautifully written and very engaging! The graphics are stunning! The voice-overs are amazing. Hunting for the achievements are so fun! Few issues with UI. Add a few more options on the settings like filtering profanity. Relabel the speech text timeout option. Pausing too. Prematurely closing it auto-continues the conversation. Clicking while dialogue is ongoing should finish it first before going to the next. Overall, I recommend this game! πŸ’–

Despite the numerous crashes and annoying restarts at the beginning of the game I just can't give it less than 5 stars. Absolutely brilliant! It would be great though if you could fix crashing after screen is switched off or switching back to game. I'm definitely going to play your other games too!

Great game with nice visuals and music score. Anytime I need to show someone indie doesn't mean "bad" I will show this game. To be honest this was the first adventure game that fit my short attention span for a long time. Maybe it's because I have a soft spot for anything with a cyberpunk theme. Anyway, I really enjoyed my first playthrough. Nice touch with the Swedish names and all. One thing I miss though, there should have been more NPCs walking around. It felt empty and after a while hinted that everyone is part of the quest somehow.

Haven't played it long enough yet for an in-depth review, but looks good after finishing Day One. Like to see manual saves. Personally, I felt more at home with Broken Sword so far, but just starting on Day Two. I chose this on sale over 6 games same price ranked much much higher on the top paid games listing for point and clicks being point & click fan. Point+Click games should have a puzzles solved ticker per screen like 4/7 letting gamer know 3 puzzles or things to do left b4 next screen.

Excellent new ideas, but as usual, EXTREMELY SHORT STORY... worth replaying once fro some alternative story bits... HORRIBLE clues(i.e., one phrase in an entirely obscure paragraph on an entirely obscure item description) lead one to spend too much time looking for walkthroughs.... definitely needs to be more with the scanning mode, or somewhere, before I can offer more than 3 stars....

This game is excellent, I really enjoyed the story, the very unique take on a post-apocalyptic world, and the puzzles themselves were challenging enough but not absolutely convoluted like puzzles in some point and click adventures often are. The art is solid and the game dialogue is fully voiced which was a very pleasant surprise. I sincerely couldn't put this game down. I can't wait to replay it and take a different personality path. Great job, devs! Can't wait for a sequel!

An excellent game if you like challenging adventure style games. It's definitely worth the money. It's a good mix of a compelling story, mystery and some puzzle thrown in. Not only that but this game was written to be solved using 3 distinct paths which adds a lot of replayability. It reminds me of the king's quest, monkey island, and Sierra PC games of my youth. Expect this games takes a serious tone which is appropriate for the theme. I will definitely look for more from this developer.

A definite 10 out of 5 from me. For Β£4.50?? Bargain! The 2d animation style is retro and attractive. Plot is good and the voice acting is very good. It lacks the humour of a Broken Sword game but it definitely has its own charm. I say a big well done to the developers. As an aside I like the fact you can double-click on an exit and you will be instantly leaving by that exit. I looked up what to do next on several occasions. It is all perfectly logical though. RECOMMENDED!

If you're like me and have a soft spot for the golden age of Lucasarts and Sierra adventure games, WoaM is a great homage to the genre. Great setting, good voice acting, and an interesting plot. My only real gripes are that one of the endings is quite weak, and it felt like some of the nano augmentations weren't used to their full potential. All in all, well worth playing through.

Such a fun game. A bit tricky sometimes. You get new "powers" depending on the dialogue you choose. A game you can play multiple times differently. Only thing I didn't care for is there's only auto save. . You have to get to a check point before it'll save. Can be frustrating. Still worth multiple plays.

Nice little point and click. Unusual and interesting setting, and some funky abilities. Mostly decent controls and logical puzzles, but stil expect to get stuck sometimes. Sadly it's too short so it's over before it even starts to pick up any pace. Still, for a mobile game it's definitely above average, especially when on sale.

Just finished game-- loved it. Well worth time and money spent. Addictive storyline, with a nice sci-fi blend. Game included the human element and making decisions which affected the outcome of the story. Graphics were old school, but good and gave the post dystopian feel to game. Enjoyed the argumentations, it was fun to use them to solve problems. Beautiful music and overall good game play. Thanks guys, had fun. Hope you make more games like this.

Great game the former Kathy Rain was very good one too but this is more advanced, more to enjoy, easier to control, good story flot. Though I really hate one thing. The shooting scene at the museum, the control is insufferable. The characters movement can't be any more annoying. It does not go where you want, nor moves at the right timing. The touch and control at this scene is TERRIBLE!(And it's super important scene with control) Other than that, I enjoyed a lot. *I request Korean localize.

Good experience. Top notch voice acting and music. I rarely noticed it was a pixel art 2d game. I was in the world. Only minor complaint, is a few instances of bad game design where you get stuck for really silly reasons. E.g. looking up one of the characters address in the police station. If I didn't do that the game wouldn't go anywhere. Overall though. Highly recommended if you love a story rich point and click adventure. I'd buy another game from this company just for the quality.

Game looks very good and thrilling, but the checkpoint system is a disaster. Guys, please let the user to define the session length, don't force people to play till checkpoint. If the game was simply saving any progress on quitting - it would be ideal. But right now I can't enjoy it as not always have time required to reach next checkpoint.

It really brings back memories of classic style point-and-click adventure game with a sci-fi detective theme and choices affects gameplay. I played twice and my character got different augmentation because my different dialogue choices. This game also runs very smoothly on mobile. The world it is set in is fascinating. I wish for another game set in the same universe.

Hands down the BEST point and click adventure I have ever played. I couldn't put it down the first day and the second I had free time the next I got right back to it. To describe the story, I would say "Blade Runner 2049" meets "Deus Ex". Thought Provoking and Intuitive, Unique and Nostalgic, Thrilling and Somber. All in all, a perfect blend that I wish I could experience again for the first time!

My opinion is very split on this game, because it feels like everything good is let down by something. Voice acting is great, but just overlaid on non-moving faces. Augmentation system is innovative, but don't like how path is triggered through dialogue choices. Story is good, but not at all original. lt also seemed a bit short, dialogue heavy and puzzle light - I got through it quickly and there were maybe 2 interesting puzzles, which doesn't make me want to replay. No offence - good luck.

Bri. R. L. Mar 29, 2020     

Loved the story and loved the augmentation mechanic, though you will really only use them rarely. You can get through the whole game in an hour if you're quick which helps get through the replays to get all the achievements. Would love more chapters or content, I think there is a lot of lore to be had in this universe, hinted at by how your choices not only change the outcome and what augs you get, but even some story beats and almost all the dialogue. I want more!

Just finished after binging for two days! Loved it so much. Nice retro graphics and interface give a moody dystopian feel. Captivating choice-based story with multiple outcomes for the narrative and gameplay. Doesn't spoon-feed and can be genuinely challenging at points, making you feel satisfied when you solve a situational puzzle. Thanks for making this game! I want more!

Engaging & creative. I liked how the choices led to different experiences. No extended fight scenes or ridiculous puzzles to solve was a huge plus for me. More like a graphic novel with a lot of interaction - it was great. Would love to see more. Only disappointment was to see how many of the females were portrayed. I wonder how this game would stand up to diff iterations of the Bechdel-Wallace test.

Jon. R. Aug 14, 2021     

Another great adventure game. I'd previously played Kathy Rain and really enjoyed it. This is in a similar vein but with a few interesting twists. The puzzles are challenging but if you persist you won't need a walkthrough much, the story was good and I really enjoyed the female lead and cyberpunk setting. All round an excellent and very memorable game :)

Played it through. Very good point and click game. Story & plot could be a bit thicker, but is good enough. The special abilities could play a bigger role really, interesting mechanic, could be made more interesting though. Still, recommend, a pearl among all the c r app in the store. And voice acting, superb, 1) for all dialogue 2) it is actually good voice acting

WOW. JUST WOW. This is up there with one of my all time favourite games, from the music to the voice overs to the plot of the story...pure genius! I am halfway through my first play through but i shall definitely be replaying it to get all the different outcomes! These old school point and click games are my absolute favourite, and this one has been done to perfection. Not to mention the lead character has the same hairstyle as me πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ One cool chick! Congrats devs, I'm a huge fan πŸ‘Œ
