White Paper

No. This game is a hard pass from me. The game is a simple hidden object game, which is what I was assuming it would be and what I knew I was getting myself into. What I did not expect was the story--and it was not good. First, the story came across as just a lot of nonsensical rambling and trying really hard to be "philosophical" and deep. For example, trying to say things like "sign" is the same thing as "mean" (I'm not sure if that portion of the story makes more sense in its original Russian than it does in English); or things like "map means city but she is not city" or something like that. I feel like it was an attempt to grasp the unending feeling of the daily grind (obviously in an office setting or other monotonous job). I'm also not sure if some parts of the game were meant to be a poem/poetic? It was just a bit of a confusing mess to read. For the actual gameplay portion, the hidden object scenes were repeated with some things being changed slightly for story purposes BUT all the objects were in the same exact places. I do not understand why the object list words were scrambled? It's unnecessary and pointless. A couple levels had items that were on the object list but were not actually a clickable object. I am NOT a fan of HO games that include the object in the background for no reason other than confusion for the player. The sounds were all adjustable, thankfully, as the music was incredibly annoying after awhile. There is NO level indication for the current level you're in, and for a game that allows level selection, it seems like a silly thing to forget to add. Now for the bugs. The game randomly crashed once when completing a level but it was still running in the background. The volume for sounds got reset to default but not the music. A few of the levels had the wrong object list for what you had to find (I believe one was either level 4 or 5). There were a few typos/grammar issues in-game, such as "photosx" and "And you follow the sign You tune in to it." Some of the English is also a bit weird, like "We've been so long...why, for a long time, for a lifetime!" It's really confusing, so I'm not sure if it's just a translation issue. So it does need a quick proofread still. Overall, the story is not worth reading and the gameplay is simple and repetitive (literally). It's DEFINITELY not worth it's price tag of $20. Whatsoever. Unless it's at a very heavily discounted price, I would skip this game.

This game is absolutely horrible. Literally just displays text and forces you to repeat stages over and over again with various variations. I don't understand this. Not worth the 20 dollar price tag, or even the 1 dollar price tag from G2A.

a fun game to play at your leisure. You have to look for objects in the locations. Lovers of hide-and-seek and similar games will definitely appreciate 😁
