A Plague Tale: Innocence

A very beautiful and atmospheric game with great music and voice acting, with an alternative history and illogical actions of the main characters.

You need to play through this game without really thinking about the actions and actions of the main characters, just enjoying what is happening and since this is a console action game, you don’t even need to choose where to run (go), because the game has no open spaces, everything is limited invisible and visible frames and you just need to move forward all the time. Exploring small nooks and dead ends will simply bring more necessary ingredients and collections; there is no alternative passage in the game.

Pros:

1. Atmospheric medieval world during the plague, suffering, tension, dark colors and a constant hanging (ringing) threat until the end of the game, very beautiful picture, great effects.

2. Great soundtrack, music, dialogues, NPC comments, you can enjoy this endlessly.

3. An interesting alternative story of the life of one family, with a little immersion and links to the real history of the world. What is interesting is not the plot itself, but the surprises that follow in its passage.

4. The combat is interesting, but the game encourages silent passage, especially at the beginning of the chapters. Each time the game gives the player a choice and options on how to finish off opponents within the limits of the imagination of the game creators. There is no choice of weapons, only a sling is available and a variety of projectiles allow you to choose a passing style, “sort of Thief: Deadly Shadows, but without picking locks.”

5. Convenient control on a PC with a keyboard and mouse, there are no special problems even in difficult battles. There are no errors or sticking to anything, except that the bottles can be touched by invisible clothes.

Cons:

1. The system for leveling up a character’s equipment is not interesting and not particularly necessary; it allows you to get only minor advantages in battles. This is a small indulgence for players who want to see an RPG component in games, albeit a defective one. There are few resources, you need to pump up and save up for the bare necessities at first, by the end of the game some Leather ingredients come across less frequently, you need to be more careful, although the game can be completed without this.

2. Limited corridor of action and choice of weapon abilities, all possibilities are fully opened only in the last chapters. There is no alternative passage.

A very interesting game with deep immersion into it, but some situations in the plot remove this effect, only the sweet taste of victory remains, without any empathy, we knew that we would win anyway.

A must-play, especially if you have the time and desire to play a beautiful corridor action game, in which there is an equal amount of everything - dialogues, battles, actions, everything in moderation. You will be left with a feeling of satisfaction; after all, we saved the world from the plague and the Inquisition, and perhaps this will not be enough for you.
