A Plague Tale: Innocence

The first time I launched A Plague Tale: Innocence it engulfed me. I would compare the experience to a dark Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice.

The environment of medieval and Black Death-ravaged France, where the game takes place, is shown really well. From the beginning you can feel the gloomy atmosphere and from some scenery there is a chill running down your back.

Among other things, the game won me over with its characters, who will experience a lot. In terms of story, it's nothing revolutionary, but thanks to the characters, you're guaranteed to be interested in the story. I would see another positive in the soundtrack, which is not for normal listening, but always fits into the given situation.

Plague Tale suffers from the classic problem of stealth games - AI is sometimes really stupid (a guard doesn't see a person hidden in grass one meter away), but sometimes he sees through a wall.

The game is definitely not perfect, but it offers a gloomy historical-fantasy world, so if you are a fan of games with a dark atmosphere, I can only recommend it.

Positives: Characters, atmosphere, soundtrack, graphics

Negatives: Artificial intelligence.

A horror, survival, stealth game with action. The ending is appropriately operatic, and challenging, not a let down.

This is another textbook game dev example of how to take one new game mechanic and tweak it 20 different ways--within a story--and with engaging characters. Masterful

As it's female-led, it has many similarities in look and feel with the 2013 Tomb Raider reboot. This is high praise in my book. Plague Tale probably has the better narrative, better story, clearer story and more masterful narrative direction. Again, high praise in my book.

It has as comparable believable world creation to Horizon Zero Dawn, high praise again. The sense of a real world, with real locations, over a great landscape is similar. Environments are not as detailed; yet, the reality and feel of interior spaces and rural villages is AAA professional

Plague Tale is more horrific than either Tomb Raider or HZD. It uses many horror and plague tropes as gameplay elements. So be prepared for gratuitous landscapes of carnage, death and destruction If this doesn't bother you, the gameplay is AAA.

The story starts off strongly and definitely brutally. I'm not exaggerating, they definitely did a good job at showing how brutal and disgusting the Black Death was. However even such horrible event cannot surpass how some people were more disgusting to each other and in some cases they use the tragedy for their own benefits. The game portrays that very well.

In that horrible world we find the sister and the little brother who have that innocent and adorable bond. As the story evolves I felt so attached to Amicia, it could be the cute accent, but I think it was also how the character evolves to the point where she would risk anything just for the safety of her brother and that basically is how Amicia grew so charismatic and heroic to me.

Masterpiece.

A Plague Take: Innocence is AA budget game with great story, simple yet tough characters and great gameplay. I loved the general idea and concept. Gameplay mechanics were also great - there are puzzles in this game but they are not annoying and always felt real. Combat mechanics were also very inventive and superbly made. There is even a crafting and upgrade of tools system which i enjoyed.

Overall, Innocence is a great game in every aspect. It's basically a stealth game but done right. I'm not into stealth games but this one i highly enjoyed. Will check for a second instalment now. Highly recommended.

This has to be one of the best games I've every played. I've only played around 3 hours so far, but it is just simply phenomenal how well the game can suck you into the story and you genuinely care for the girl and the boy. Actually I was more worried that the boy got hurt every time my character had to make a decision.

Wonderful atmosphere, the music, dialogues are absolutely spot on to suck you into the world and feel the pain and struggle the characters are going through as they venture across the storyline.

I highly recommend it to anyone really.
