Reviews for "The Dark Cell: Volume I"
A good start. Story and art work together to create an interesting a moody game. Combat mechanics could be extended to quick time events perhaps in later installments. As it stands far to short to rate it higher. Played it a several times through to see what else there was and my total play couldn't have been longer than five minutes.
Interesting!
Well, that is quite an introductory story you have. The premise and the choose your own adventure style game is engaging. However, the story is way too short no matter what path you pick. If you can make this into a full project, it might be better. Perhaps make it one where the main character has to deal with life outside and keep on his toes to prevent being caught again and put back in his cell. A back story would be nice too, showing the audience where it all came from, and what the man went through. Not too bad a game/story, it just feels incomplete.
3/5
Well done, for what it is, though I couldn't really get into it.
Could use more arise faces.
