Finished 1979 Revolution: Black Friday
I’m very torn with this game. On the one hand it is reasonably well told and has a unique setting that makes the game appealing. On the other it left me disappointed due to it’s fairly short length. When I reached the end I was just thinking, “That can’t be it, is this just Episode 1 or something and it does credits at the end of each like Telltale games???” But … no … that was it, it just ends very abruptly. The length clearly affected other things as well. None of the characters (except the main character) get much screen time so there isn’t much character development. Also there just isn’t time for your choices to feel like they had any far-reaching affects. The visuals are nice to look at, though there are some mistakes (such as when I saw a man walk through a newspaper machine). As for gameplay, don’t expect anything more than what you normally get in games like these (think the amount of gameplay in a Telltale game i.e. minimal). So I guess my recommendation is a very shaky yes, but only if the devs plan on continuing the story.
