Yesterday Origins

[Great Deceiver]

Is anyone playing this? I've played through the prologue and even though the interface is pretty shitty, the game seems promising and not too retarded. There are proper inventory manipulation puzzles and no handholding so far. Looks pretty decent too... I think the studio who made this also made the Runaway games, which were kind of bad but they came out during those "dark years" of adventure games when almost nothing was coming out.

Worth checking out, at least.

Its worth the money, but there are strong traces of the console adaptation. It is a pretty classical adventure game with good graphics, and that is so rare its almost worth is even if it is half-crap.

Played the first one a couple of years ago. It starts out well enough, but soon descends into typical Dan Brown-ish "Ancient (Catholic) Mysteries + Immortality" wank. The puzzles are, for the most part, okay, but the story really drags it down, I could barely finish it.

The first is incredibly bad. I would say, it is the worst Pendullo's game. It isn't even a propper graphic adventure. It's more akin to the interactive movie telltale-style crap, but without "choice&concequences".
