Kafkamesto

Kafkamesto is a mystery game, where you play as a man who has no idea where he is (We know it's Kafkamesto), who he is, or what his name is. The objective of the game is to find these things out, with the help of the people around the strange city and the items that he finds in his room.

At first, the game seems interesting. The concept is creative, but it's greatly brought down by the gameplay and other elements.

The way the game is set up makes it rather boring after about 5 minutes of clicking on the screen to go into different areas, pick up items, and click on people/things that seem important. It's very repetative, and the player can get lost in the city quite easily. Another problem is that the items you hold in your suitcase disappear after using them, so if you use the wrong item, you can't get it back (Which means you'll have to restart the game often.) It's to repetative and complicated for such and interesting idea.

The sound effects are also a factor. The haunting music really fits the theme and gives the player a feeling of what the man in the game is thinking, but this is abruptly stopped as soon as you hear the babbling of the landlady outside his apartment.

The voices are very amateur-ish and make the game less dramatic than it should be.

Overall, I'd say I wouldn't play this game again after stopping a few minutes after starting.
