This War of Mine

What will we see during the game?

Anarchy has set in in an unnamed Eastern European state. The military attacked the civilians, and for this reason they turned against them. The survivors try to stay that way, huddling in dilapidated houses. In a previous life, successful and not so successful, people are now equal – every day may be their last, and a quiet time can easily be replaced by a bloody drama if drunken bandits appear. The military is also worth being wary of – there are no fewer drunkards among them than among civilians.

By downloading the game, you can get a stream of cold water all over your body. Literally in the first minutes of the game, it would be advisable to close it and delete it forever. But something doesn't allow it to be done. The ruins of a house can be seen on the screen. There are sick, ragged, angry and hungry people in it. They survived. But for how long? Let's say right away that the full squad will not be able to reach the final of the "survival game"...

Difficult choices, important decisions, hopelessness

There are so many everyday problems interwoven into the gameplay in an artificial apocalypse that you want to immediately run to download cheats, mods, trainers and other "rescue sticks", just to avoid the horrors awaiting the main characters. You can do this, even for free, but it will become uninteresting to play. Unless, the soul will be calm for the fate of the wards.

All the proposed problems could be solved in the usual time. But the proposed conditions complicate everything so much that we have to make inhumanly difficult decisions. Scavenging for provisions, venturing into the city, and trading their jewelry for the riches of other survivors are just a small part of the daily "routine." We'll have to keep an eye on people – someone will run out of food and die, someone will lose a friend and go crazy, and someone will not be able to return on time from another raid for supplies.

Every minute I have to answer the question for myself: what happens if I... rob, help victims of violence, kill or spare…It's easy to be bloodthirsty and heartless, but depression will cover the wards. It's hard to remain humane and noble, and it will become much more difficult to save your guys. Control your behavior, listen to your soul and mind.

Do you think you can pull on a mask and complete the game without nervous hesitation? It won't work…The authors of This war of mine have expertly erased the boundaries between fictitious and real. Brilliant graphics along with sound and text details will immerse you in the atmosphere and will not allow you to remain indifferent.

Pencil graphics

The optimal drawing is selected. The pencil world looks painfully realistic, making the passage unforgettable. Whether in the first or the latest version, the graphics hide possible technical flaws everywhere and attract you. Thanks to her style, you believe what is happening...

What can you say when everything has already been said?

Have you watched the post-apocalyptic movie "The Road"? These are the emotions and impressions that the game creates and leaves behind. But the developers don't speculate on feelings at all – they highlight the reality that is happening in many corners of our poor planet.

Advantages of This war of mine:

• a well-designed survival simulator;
• martial law is shown "uncensored";
• the game has a strong influence, after which you will definitely not remain the same.
