(Discontinued) Gerda: A Flame in Winter - Wild Boar - 12-03-2025
You have five days to save your husband, who has just been arrested by the Gestapo. Investigate, explore, and build relationships in this adventure game with role-playing elements. Who can you trust? Steam
It's a shame that such an exciting topic has been turned into such a boring game. In a game, I want to play, which means actively doing things. And by actively doing things, I don't mean just clicking on predetermined points and then having the character comment on them. A door is locked? Just click on one of the 3-4 points in the room and you've got it. A brain-dead monkey could play this game.
Given the beautiful graphics and serious theme, it's a shame how the game was botched. Add to that the implausible characterizations: someone gets beaten up with your help = the next day, you're working together again, no big deal. Your superiors don't even question where your bruised face came from. It's all just stupidly done.
