Eigentlich ein recht cooles Setting für ein Point & Click. Die düstere Atmosphere und die verworrene Geschichte gefällt mir und macht Lust auf mehr.
Ob dieser Prolog auch Teil des Hauptspiels ist oder tatsächlich die Geschichte davor erzählt, kann ich leider noch nicht sagen.

Das einzige Manko was mir negativ aufgefallen ist, ist dass Gespräche teilweise zwischen den Texten eine längere Anlaufzeit haben. Man wartet dann ohne, dass ein Text auf dem Screen erscheint oder ein Dialog zu hören ist. Manchmal bewegen sich die Charaktere dabei nicht mal.

Grundsätzlich aber empfehlenswert :-)

Die Dialoge und die Charaktere sind irgendwie seltsam. Also die Dialoge bestehen teilweise aus wirren Zeug und sind vor allem sehr langatmig. Die Aufgaben halten sich noch stark in Grenzen. Ich sage bewusst Aufgaben, weil so richtige Rätsel gab es in dieser Demo zumindest noch nicht. Finde das und das sind bei mir zumindest noch Aufgaben, aber wenn man das schon als Rätsel ansieht, okay.

Die Demo hat mir gereicht. Ich habe wirklich keine Lust auf das Hauptspiel. Es wirkt auf mich wie ein ziemlich durchschnittliches Point and Click Adventure. Ich finde zwar Horror-Adventures durchaus interessant, aber ich konnte zumindest bei dieser Demo keine Besonderheiten erkennen, wodurch es sich irgendwie abhebt. Wirkt wie irgendein beliebiger Abklatsch. In der Ausführung ist es aber solider, aber trotzdem verzichte ich.

Sehr schöne Graphiken wie ich finde, und als eingefleischter Point& Click Fan bin ich von diesem Spiel begeistert; gerne mehr davon. Man wird richtig nostalgisch bei dem Spiel, und kann relativ schnell in die Geschichte eintauchen. Wenn das Spiel so weitermacht wie der Prolog erwarte ich freudig schöne Spielstunden...

Die kostenlose Demo hat mich neugierig auf das Spiel gemacht



Ich habe die Demo nun zwei mal gepsielt. Ich bin gespannt auf das fertige Spiel!

Geschichte und Vorbild:
Es ist der Anfang und Einblick in eine Geschichte, die düster und mysteriös wirkt. Es erinnert mich vom "Look and Feel" an den originalen ersten Black Mirror Teil von Future Games. Bis heute ist Black Mirror eines der stärksten und interessantesten Aventure-Spiele, die mir nachhaltig in Erinnerung geblieben sind. Vielleicht könnte "Saint Kotar" in diese großen Fußstapfen treten.

Stärken und Schwächen der Demo:
In der Demo sind noch so einige Macken, die bereinigt werden sollten. Allerdings habe ich beim zweiten Durchspielen festgestellt, dass einiges schon verbessert wurde. Die Sound- und Tonmischung war nicht gut und auch nicht gut einstellbar. Die Sprache war viel zu leise. Man verstand manchmal gar nicht richtig, was da gesprochen wurde. Das ist nun deutlich besser.

Positiv ist schon mal, dass deutsche Untertitel vorhanden sind.

Die Grafik ist für ein Adventure ansprechend. Allerdings ist hier noch Feintuning angesagt. Gerade die Figuren wirken manchmal, wenn sie sich drehen für einen Augenblick seltsam flach und zweidimensional. Manchmal kommt es zu Grafikfehlern. Der neue Schwarz-Weiß-Modus ist eine kreative Idee. Bin zwischen den Modi mal hin und her gewechselt... und ja dieser Schwarz-Weiß-Modus hat durchaus seinen Reiz und bietet nochmal eine andere Atmosphäre. Der Hitchcock-Klassiker "Psycho" wurde ja auch in Schwarz-Weiß gedreht.

In der Demo gibt es noch nicht viel zu rätseln und kein besonders üppiges Inventar. Hauptsächlich werden Dialoge geführt. Ich hoffe, dass in dem fertigen Spiel ein gutes und cleveres Rätseldesigne vorzufinden ist. Am liebsten mit klassischen Elementen und etwas Innovativem, was einen positiv überrascht.

Fan-Fiktion:
Wünschenswert wäre eine deutsche Sprachausgabe. Die war z.B. bei Black Mirror erstklassig. Die deutsche Synchronstimme von Johnny Depp hat wesentlich dazu beigetragen, dass Black Mirror sich für mich auch wie ein Blockbuster anfühlte. Ja wir Deutsche sind bei Kinofilmen auch eine professionelle und gute Synchronisation gewohnt und was das angeht sicherlich auch sehr verwöhnt. Aber ich denke Hollywood hätte ohne deutsche Synchronisation auch bei Weitem nicht diesen kommerziellen Erfolg in Deutschland. Ich hoffe immer das auch für Adventure-Entwickler eine deutsche Synchronisation kommerziell sinnvoll und lohnenswert ist.

Leider gibt es zu viele gute und interessante Adventures, die nie eine deutsche Sprachausgabe erhalten haben. Bin gespannt, ob hier eine deutsche Sprachausgabe zu erwarten ist. Bisher gibt es bei Kickstarter oder hier bei Steam keine Informationen ob und wann mit einer deutschen Sprachausgabe zu rechnen ist. Vielleicht gibt es ja einen deutschen Publisher, der eine Lokalisierung übernimmt. Mir würden da spontan Daedalic, Application Systems Heidelberg, oder Assemble einfallen, die gute Adventures mit deutscher Sprachausgabe in ihrem Portfolio haben. Etwas Hoffnung und Wünsche darf man als Adventure-Fan ja haben...

Fazit:
Wenn die Story wirklich gut, spannend und durchdacht ist und der Spielumfang letzten Endes für ein Adventure stimmt (10 -20 Spielstunden wären schon wünschenswert), dann bin ich sehr interessiert!

Ich hoffe nicht, dass so ein halbgarer Titel wie "Alter Ego" herauskommt. Das Spiel hatte gute Ansätze, ist aber teils schlampig und abgehetzt umgesetzt worden und hatte somit leider sein Potential verschenkt. Ich drücke die Daumen, dass hier das gesamte Potential gehoben und ausgereizt wird.

Dialoge sind etwas harsch in "deutsch", aber gut uebersetzt. Beim untersuchen ist es doch etwas nervig am Anfang bis man alles findet, man braucht doch etwas Geduld und wenn man es heraus hat, klappt es schon, auch ohne Walkthrough! Auf jeden Fall ist es ein interessantes Point and Click Adventure.

The cure to insomnia.

The exposition dumps, the long pauses after every glance or sentence, the turtle walk, the need for a turtle walk before every glance, the terrible voice-acting (one snivels incessantly, one parodies a cartoon villain, none behave like human beings,) the verbosity, the constant interruptions in the gameplay... Good grief !

Nothing fascinating or captivating about these divas and their dramatics.

30 minutes was all I could handle before I uninstalled it and lost all interest in the game. Don't get me wrong. Graphically and atmospherically it is great. Really enjoyed how you could change the display to be more traditional horror too. But I could not get past the main characters. The man you play as at the start is incredibly unlikable in my opinion.

I think you can do an unlikable character right, but this is not how. Every object I interacted with resulted in a very religious and judgemental response. For example, as soon as you wake up, you can interact with a basin in the wall. You character immediately sounds annoyed, calling it sacrilegious. Like, calm down man. It's just a basin, who cares. He also loses his bible and immediately assumes his sister stole it off his person while he slept. Like, what the hell? He goes on about this without any proper elaboration or examples of this being a thing his sister would do.

I also had some trouble with the dialogue between other characters. Obviously because your character has a previous relationship with these people, there will be some confusion on the part of the player as to what they are discussing or how they know each other. But for the most part it doesn't feel genuine. It also feels alienating how the dialogue tree is heavily skewed towards one type of answer. That usually isn't an issue, but with such an unlikable character as the one you play as, you feel annoyed that you have to respond like that.

But yeah, hope the official release of the full game proves me wrong and some major changes are made to the characters (including making him sound a lot less whinny) but honestly would not recommend so far. Sure, it is a free demo. But it still costs you time. So find something better.

The prologue for Saint Kotar is a bittersweet affair. I have many criticisms for it but remain hopeful. From what I have seen of the developer’s website they have already addressed many of my issues for future versions of the prologue and final game but at the end of the day I am reviewing what I have played not what I will be playing. The game does have an interesting story to it and some great lore. The graphics are decent as well. Not mind blowing but not bad either. Everything is average across the board from object detail; clothing; faces, etc. For my gripes I will start with the main characters. I couldn’t get into either. I found Benedek to be too whiny to care about. Too often he found cause to feel slighted and tried to act holier than he probably was. Then there was Nikolay who came off as a slightly aggressive junkie. Both were rude to multiple people and had little in the way of redeeming qualities. Perhaps my opinion of them changes with a full game but I don’t know. The voice acting itself was alright (Sara Secora as Ida was the best of the bunch) but the way the lines are played had a weird pause in places which made them feel disjointed. Another thing was that for a town that is apparently in Eastern Europe there didn’t seem to be a single person with an accent from any where close to that region. There was also no ambient noise which didn’t help in selling the atmosphere of dread or suspense. It also made the game odd in parts such as when Nikolay badgers Ida to turn off the radio because the noise is bothering him but there is no noise that the player can hear. The store page for the game advertises “fateful decisions” but I don’t feel like the prologue had much of those. I found one, maybe two choices. Many dialogue choices weren’t really choices as you end up asking both questions; not choosing anything other than the order they are asked. Two features I would have liked were an objective list and/or a conversation history. Either would have helped me keep track in where I had to go or what I had to do. This appears to have been implemented for future versions.

I played Saint Kotar: The Yellow Mask on Linux. It never crashed on me and I didn’t notice any bugs or spelling errors. There are no graphics options to adjust. You can manually save at any time outside of conversations. Alt-Tab didn’t work. There is an option for “Classic Horror Mode” but the game gave no explanation as to what it did so I didn’t use it on this play through. Performance wise the game was great. It had one single drop to 53 FPS but other than that it ran at either my full 144 FPS or very close to it.

It must sound like a bad game but it isn’t. This specific version had several things I disliked about it but I am still looking forward to the finished game and hopeful much of my dislikes will be rectified. That being said I can’t give a great recommendation to this version other than saying to try it out because it is free and has an interesting theme and story. I finished it in 2 hours and 12 minutes.

I really want to like it, but I can´t.
It has so much potential.
The atmosphere is pretty good, it looks beautiful and the story seems interesting.
But it´s just boring because most of the time you can´t do anything.
The dialogs are too long and slow.....oh man, really fucking long and fucking slow!
It´s a pity, but I can´t go on with this kind of storytelling.
Devs please, let me PLAY it and not just stare at one scene for minutes!!!!

Ich möchte es wirklich gut finden, aber es geht nicht.
Es hat so viel Potenzial.
Die Atmosphäre ist ziemlich gut, es sieht schön aus und die Geschichte scheint interessant zu sein.
Aber es ist einfach langweilig, weil man die meiste Zeit über nix tun kann.
Die Dialoge sind zu lang und langsam....oh man, wirklich scheiße lang und scheiße langsam!
Es ist schade, aber ich kann mit so einer Art der Erzählung nicht weitermachen.
Devs bitte, lasst es mich SPIELEN und nicht nur minutenlang auf eine Szene starren!!!!

It's fantastic, a psychological horror with beautiful graphics. I can't wait for the full game to be released. I usually dislike point-and-click and adventure games but this one completely changed my mind. No combat or unkillable monsters that chase you and yet this game is far more thrilling than the ones that have it and flash gore in your face. The soundtrack is also amazing, very atmospheric. Definitely will purchase the supporter's pack. I also love the controls of the game which rarely happens - all you need is already there (mainly I mean the possibility of highlighting interact-able objects, which is very convenient).

This is just a demo but I'll tentatively recommend this game for those who like atmospheric point and click games. The game is slow moving (literally. The characters aren't speedy walkers), but the pacing does add a bit to the atmosphere. The two character roles (thus far) are a monk/priest and a former monk/priest and religion, occult, and related themes are present. A dark story is being revealed as you act and investigate.

The voice acting is okay, and grows on you as you play, or so I found once I got used to the voices. I found the subtitles useful since volume can be tricky and there are times when I've wondered what I might have missed according to what a character was saying. It's not a game for a loud room.

This demo gives a good sampling of what the game is like so I recommended at least running through it if you're on the fence about whether or not to pick up the final product.

For those familiar with Robert Chambers, yes, the title is a reference to the King in Yellow and there are little details in the narrative that relate.

The prologue of this game fascinated me a lot, I am already wondering how the story will continue. I think the story is very interesting and there is definitely something to look forward to. I really like mysterious games of this type. I am especially excited about the total length of the final version of the game, as the creators promise a game time of around 20 hours. Be sure to play the prologue and let yourself be enticed as well.

Nice prologue. Definitely got deep feelings of Black Mirror in here, which I hold in high regard for classic adventure games. Glad I backed this to see how it evolves.

I agree with some of the reviews though...some of the animations are longer than necessary and sometimes awkward pauses in dialogue. Other than that and making the characters run faster, looking good.

Everything in this game takes ages: animations are too long, characters move slowly (even running feels slow), pauses between lines in dialogues are overly long and it feels like ages before characters will get to the point. The other thing about dialogues is they aren't presented interestingly, not even shot/reverse shot. It just has no pace, and extremely boring. Maybe the story is good, but I was able to endure only 1 hour of this game. The main character is an unlikeable paranoiac who does nothing except talking and complaining and more complaining. The only positives I can point out are pretty backgrounds and decent voice acting.

I just couldn't finish it...

Good Points: The design of the game is well done. The voice acting is rather good (as in not sounding like it is read from a script). The music and in game sound, wonderful.

Bad points: The entire start of the game I just wanted the main Character to be killed off. The endless preachy speech. The voice acting, although believable, the script was horrible. The way their tones or pitch in their voice didn't agree to the emotion to which they should be answering. Like someone excited while giving bad news... It was dragging on... I was waiting for anything scary to happen. A jump scare just some random black cat running across the screen, something. I was reclined back in my chair trying not to fall asleep.

Now, maybe this is a perfect game for someone to really take their time, read and get immersed into the story, I am not that person. Also, I would NOT recommend anyone to stream this game as I just did. Play it alone.

I would rate this a 2 out of 5 stars. It doesn't make me want to spend any money on the full version. I'm sorry.

Endless and pointless dialogues of a priest moaning all the time.
Very slow movements that could make you fall asleep during the time the character is crossing the screen or even just doing one simple action..
Waiting a lot to hear a lot of moans is too much for me.

I wanted to like this game after I saw the first pictures of it in Kickstarter. I was imagining Broken Sword type of action/adventure set in a remote Croatian village with some horror elements and thought YES! I was already choosing which pledge to buy.

But then I played the demo.

The strange dialogue/monologue, clumsy English, the lack of story telling, irritating over dramatized voice acting, problems with Unity stalling for 5 seconds or throwing straight out of the game... etc.

Psychological thriller is a difficult art to master and you need to have proper writing to make it work. It needs to grasp you tight and make you want to see how everything plays out. In this demo it is just substandard and you don't get any kind of emotional connection with the protagonists to start caring about them. The main problem is that the story begins abruptly and the main characters are vague and you really don't get where they are coming from.

Argh! Can't hide the disappointment. I just feel sad about this because the game looks gorgeous and the art and the mood are spot on, but everything else around it just falls apart :( The execution of the demo just doesn't match with the ideas I had about this game.

I really really really hope that for the main game they have a better written story and manage to polish the annoying technical issues with Unity. I am going to keep it wishlisted and hoping for the best. But based on this demo I don't feel like pledging.

Anyway, you don't have to agree with my rant so maybe for you even this demo works, so play it and check it out!

Its a fine game. I like point & click genre and this brings good vibes with it. Although it has some flaws I believe they will make the final product technically much better.

Positives:
Good graphics
Enticing story
Amazing setting
Music/Sound is fine, it goes with ambient very well

Negatives:
It feels clunky, the character you control walks so slowly and you cannot double click exit point and just proceed to next like in wast majority of other point&click games.
Dialogues are rather slow and long aswell, and there are many uncomfortable pauses between some of the sentences
In some parts of convesations between the characters sound is not very well optimized, which means that same character will say one sentence in one way and other with totally different volume and sound quality.

Nevertheless I believe these technicalities can be fixed easily and I do recommend everyone to try this prologue out.

An intriguing point-and-click adventure with some very tangible Silent Hill vibes to it. The strong psychological horror elements dressed in a very well composed and melancholic soundtrack makes it easy to get lost in this.

Fully voice-acted, which is a plus, but also brings some flaws to the table. Some of the dialogue is over-acted at times and is not always written particularly naturally. The characters tend to descend into long winded monologues at times which comes off as desperate attemps at exposition. I think it would have been possible to say more, using fewer words.

Missed out on Kickstarter unfortunately, but I will definitely look forward to the full release of this. Give it a shot if you're into either point-and-clicks or psychological horror - it's free and definitely worth your time.

I am in the middle of the road on this one. The art is wonderful and really fits the story but I just could not get past the strange dialogue. Often it changed gears abruptly and the mood was all over the place. It seemed like part of this was a translation problem. The characters just come across as neurotic. And, the voice acting was not very good which just compounded the problem. I think the developer shows promise though and I expect good things in the future.

I get that it's a free demo, but as a demo it does the cardinal sin of giving a bad first impression. Instead of making me want more, It most likely killed my interest in the game, and that's unfortunate, because it looked quite good. It is a somewhat interesting, if a little cliche, setting of a backwater town, lost in time, where all the inhabitants seams more or less mad or troubled. Clearly Lovecraft inspired and it can make for a good game. It also seams that they are going for a somewhat branching narrative, as there are some different choices you can make that affect how the story progress. But there are just too many flaws with the game.

The plot and motivations are the biggest issue and make no sense at all. The protagonists are unlikable (Benedeck especially, he's whiny, full of himself and just annoying), and not in a good or interesting way. Both come across as complete raving lunatics, accusing people for the stupidest most pointless things and nothing in their motivations or how they interact with each other or anyone else makes much sense.

Having a story begining in medias res is really hard to pull off since there are things known to the characters, but not the player and this feels like it could be the main issue here. The devs have said that this is the begining of the game, but I really hope there are at least some explanation for why the people behave as they do.

The dialogues are all over the place where it sometimes feels like 50% of the dialogue is missing. People answer you with something other than what you asked, you say things and talk about things that are never established and you have no reason to do. Characters, both you and the NPC change tone between hostile and pleasant for no apperent reason in the middle of a sentance.

I might forgive the game if it's a way to show that the protagonist are starting to lose their mind too but I think it's might be part dodgy translation and part that the game just drop you in with no previous knowledge of the characters and their relationships. Either that or at least unfinished gameplay. There's also next to no actuall puzzles in the demo. Hopefully that change in the main game.

On the more technical aspects there are even more issues. The engine is really slow and awkward. Animations and actions sometimes take several seconds after you click on something and your character walk really slow. The graphics are a mixed bag. The backgrounds are great and set a very nice atmosphere, but the character models are much worse and much of the animations overall are stiff and clearly unfinished and sometimes missing altogehter. It all gives a very unpolished feel (this can arguably be excused at this stage since it's a demo).

I will still have this game on my radar, there are some potential for the setting, but the demo definitly discouraged me from backing the kickstarter that's currently running.

Prologue Review - Amazing Experience!


I was really interested in this game ever since i saw the trailer, and i was very happy to play it. Please note the prologue of the story is just a demo and the game has not been released yet. The story is pretty dark, cryptic and sinister. You follow two characters Benedek and Nikolay who are affiliated with the Church, I think one of them is a past priest but I'm not sure if the other still is. They come to this very depressing creepy town with directions of Benedek's sister, and after a day of rituals, she goes missing. The two soldiers try to find her, but they hear weird things from the town residents and is not sure what to expect. The story has strong elements of religion and witchcraft and satanic elements. It has a strong psychological perspective as well.

It gives the Black Mirror franchise feeling but much more darker. The prologue is very short but the story is super interesting, I found myself being immersed to every dialogue, every sentence. The voice acting is superb and the art is amazing. What I fell in love looking at the trailer was the smooth gameplay, as well as the polished game mechanics. You can control two characters but not at will and I thought that's so cool because how it's directed very interestingly. The game has a kickstarter campaign, and if you can please support the game. It is truly an amazing experience of a few hours I had with this one. I am hoping they finally get backed up and I can play it one day uwu.

A lot of endless monologues. The guy starts babbling at every action he does, and - I don't know why - you have to wait, like 5 sec, just as an empty intermezzo, to him to come back to the game after this. The dialogues have a slow pace and, often, deal with aforementioned information. This is a FREE game with an expected continuation so I hope this analysis could be constructive for the devs; just my opinion, though.

A wonderful and eerie game! It feels so chilling and dark. Nothing difficult when it comes to puzzles, but the characters look so weird and the storyline sounds so disturbing, that you can't help but long for more. I can't wait to play the full game! Good job, developers!

You could say that this game is a classic Point-and-Click adventure. However, the story holds a pretty serious tone throughout. Billed as a horror game, it's one of those stories where you're never quite sure if the horror is all in the protagonist's head, or there really is some evil lurking, or both. A particular highlight is the voice acting, really sets the mood and draws you in.
And this prologue is FREE, so give it a try :)

Although the script is a little heavy on the religious front, this game is engaging and intriguing. It echos hints of Gabriel Knight, Broken Sword and Twin Peaks. It is very dark with mature themes, I guess nothing is what it seems and this will come to light with the full game. The game itself looks great, with a classic point and click interface. Its script heavy so hope for some puzzles in the main game! Good start!
